I doubt it.
People get tired of parties in the White House, even when things are good. An aspect is that there's a tendency for the parties to kick the can down the road, which catches up with them at some point.
In '96, Quayle would have been a weak frontrunner on the GOP side, so there would be an unimpressive presidential nominee to boot. In this scenario, the '94 revolution would likely have been delayed until the Democrats' first midterm, creating a different bench for the parties (Ann Richards would likely be a second term Governor from a state that produced several Presidents, Mario Cuomo would probably have won a fourth term.)
