unlikely as long as you can't switch out the modem and antenna.
So you would need:
- a new antenna
- a new modem
- a driver working with your CPU/OS, which is likely to not be the case
- a way to replace the parts
Sometimes the modem is part of the CPU package, making it impossible.
Driver limitations make it often even impossible to produce "the same phone but with just another modem", not even speaking about upgrading.
The best chance to update to 5G is in laptops where the modem is on a separate Bord, but even then you have the problem of firmware lock-down and interface incompatibilities.

As for drivers, I'm not sure if you can pipe voice calls across these (VOIP, yes, but cellular calls? I have no clue how that works).
