I don't think that would work. The Twenty-Second Amendment explicitly states that anyone in the scenario you mentioned is barred from being elected twice, so even if he promised to resign it still wouldn't be constitutional. The amendment has no limit on how long one can serve, only the amount of times he can be elected.
