Historically I am using other wysiwyg html editors (hacked in many ways to suit my requirements). However now I wish to start using ckeditor5. 

I understand ckeditor5 is way different than other wysiwyg html editors (no execCommand for example)

So I want to try it while my existing editors are still working. Once I am good with ckeditor5, I will make a switch.

So the question

Is it possible to use existing ckeditor5 that comes with core, without actually enabling the module.

(I know one can use ckeditor5 from CDN and go ahead; however I do not want that (I have already tested that enough)

I intend this because if that is possible then there will be zero change once I decide to switch to it (like license setting, modules, plugins involved. window.CKEDITOR variable ... whatever)

Please let me know how can I do this.

Thanks

I am going to say no, it probably can't be done. Code in modules that are not enabled is not loaded and cannot be executed. Maaaaaybe you could directly include a file, but the odds of it working without requiring a massive rabbit hole of trying to figure out how to include this or that or whatnot is pretty limited.
