Getting back into VC?

Hypothetically, if I were to found a start-up and it failed would I be able to get back into VC?

Currently have ~3 years in VC, joined out of undergrad. Went to a target and studied CS. Also, have a quite strong network within my vertical. However, would be starting a co outside of my vertical so it would likely be harder to get back into VC if it failed.

I know I shouldn't doubt myself and I'm 99% sure I could scale this idea into at least a 8 figure valuation. But, would also be great to have a plan B.
