Mexico was in the middle of its Mexican Revolution (1910-1921), with several warlords already fighting Mexican Federal troops. Even if Mexico actively wanted to have New Mexico, Arizona and Texas back, such plan was unfeasible due to the logistics involved, including lack of weapons and manpower - Mexico had a population of 14 million, while the US had a population of 102 million.
If however, Mexico had agreed to such plan, it would have meant the utter destruction of the country. Several warlords - who were well armed, and had competent fighters - would have turned to guerrilla tactics, inflicting high losses on the American forces. However, Mexico would have been eventually defeated due to the sheer numbers of American combatants.
The most serious result of such war however, would have been the inability for the United States to join the allied forces during World War I by 1917. Such consequences would include one or two years of more fighting, and greater loss of life - by the millions, mind you. It is unlikely that the Central Powers would have won such conflict, but they would have been on a more secure position to ask for a truce.
