No; it would go completely against a royal tradition of well over 1,000 years. It might have been thinkable at the lowest ebb of Charles' popularity when his ex-wife Diana died, who was - without much factual ground, really - considered a 'saint' and a 'people's princess'. Most Britains today now have come to realize that she was a rather neurotic and very class-conscious woman, very good at manipulating her 'saintly' image through the tabloid press and at least as adulterous as her husband, if not more so. Charles' popularity (and that of his new wife) has since then risen considerably. Prince William without any doubt would simply forbid and condemn any action to support promoting him over his father.

It is likely that Prince Charles will become king when Queen Elizabeth dies, as he is the first in line to the throne. After Prince Charles, Prince William is next in line to succeed him.

Will Prince William succeed Queen Elizabeth II?

There's a chance he might do so directly. Prince William is second in line to the throne, after his father, Prince Charles. When Queen Elizabeth II passes on the crown, by death or voluntary act, one of the following will happen. 1 - Prince Charles takes the throne as King Charles III. Prince William is therefore the heir apparant, the next in line. Barring his own death or other exceptional circumstances, he will eventually become King. 2 - Prince Charles refuses the crown, allowing William to directly succeed from Queen Elizabeth II.
