Well, first off, Let me say this.

Scrubs did fantastic through it's first 8 seasons, unbelievably good reviews, however, in season 9, several of the main characters left. The ones who left include J.D., Elliot, Carla, The Janitor and more. In fact, the only staples left on the show in season nine were Bob Kelso, Dr. Cox, and Turk. However, in season nine the show's reviews started getting more and more negative, and eventually ABC cancelled it due to lack of viewers. This is understandable however, because I know everything about scrubs, but even I stopped watching when I saw the first few episodes of season nine. Completely Horrendous.

Scrubs moved from NBC to ABC because "My Name Is Earl" began airing on NBC and they didn't have room for both shows on that channel, and while "My Name Is Earl" became a hit show Scrubs just continued it steady flow of fans. So NBC decided to stop airing Scrubs and then ABC started airing it.

Is there a possibility that scrubs medschool also known as scrubs season 9 will be picked up by another network other than abc for a second season?

No, there is not. I mean, I guess with this kind of thing anything's possible, but the possibility of this happening is so remote and insignificant it's safe to say it will never happen. Honestly, scrubs was meant to be over at the end of season 8. That's why the last episode of season 8 is entitled 'My Finale.' However, ABC wanted to keep milking the show, so season 9 was made. If even ABC stopped, it's... for all purposes... over.
