Mr. Younan, I have answered your question two or three times now. Yes, I think it is possible. This is not the first time I have said that. I don't understand why you keep asking me when I have plainly answered you already.
I merely wanted to clarify in case you were going where I think you are with this line of reasoning.
I also do not think that Samaritan history is as clear as it would seem, since there were, at least, two groups referred to as Shomrim. I also think it is important to look at their pre-exilic existence, attested to in the TN"K, Karaite commentaries, and their own writings.
