No. But you could always declare him an Antipope and have him deposed.

Been a while since that happened.

“Can a pope be impeached?”

That’s a big negatory. “Papal infallibility”.

There are those who argue that the College of Cardinals have the power to meet in conclave, and elect a new Pope. There are canonized saints who have said so.
