Probably not because that would be economic suicide for both countries.

@BohemianBoo Maybe 20 years ago. But it would hurt the US more than China. The west has not been their primary market for awhile now. Even US companies their primary markets are no longer in the English speaking world.
Chinese wages have also quadrupled in the last 25 years whereas American wages have been in a nose dive over the same period.
And the US has not had the industrial capacity to make up the difference for half a century now.
But OP seems to be implying a military conflict not an economic one which has already been going on for years.
