No doubt
I would be very surprised if it could happen that quickly , IIRC when MX left Star they were subject to a 2 year 'standdown' period before they could join another alliance , I would be very surprised if Oneworld did not have a similar clause in their termination conditions ( I accept that CP flights were permitted on Star RTWs during the merger process with AC , but they were never actually a Star member in their own right )
