Roberts would have to die, resign, or be impeached by the House and convicted/removed by the Senate for that to happen. There would have to be a vacancy in the Chief Justiceship for Trump to appoint a replacement.

By my reading of the Constitution, I see nothing about the appointment of the Chief Justice chair that designates that it is for life. Roberts would remain on the Court just not as CJ.
