Doubtful that they could make that work though at a reasonable cost. This is going to need a serious flame trench, even though it will be possibly be less thrust.
FWIW, LC-39A was overengineering for Nova from the start. It can handle BFR and even ITS-level thrust. The question is if SpaceX could realistically modify 39A to support Falcon and BFR while still satisfying their Commercial Crew obligations.
