Lateraling Up Fund Size in Credit?

Is it possible for someone to lateral from a MM private credit fund to MF private credit? Know it doesn't happen much on the PE side, but curious how it is for private credit since I get the sense recruiting for credit ops isn't as rigid. For context, currently an analyst at a MM direct lender that just raised a $1B fund looking to potentially upgrade to a MF down the line.
