Nope. The succession rules are set out in the Act of Settlement of 1701. Any changes must be ratified by the Parliaments of Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

No, the life of the royals is bound by a lot of rules set by the government. They basically can’t do much. They can’t hand over the throne to anyone else, they can’t object much to the PM etc.
