I don’t think so. That would only make his wish to run and win against Obama even stronger. I am perfectly sure he thinks he could win in such a contest. He is after all a completely delusional pathological narcissist.
And don’t forget, he has control of the whole federal government at the moment. He’s attacking his political enemies and attacking voting rights. It would be entirely within his current M.O. to either politically jail Obama, or change the voting laws to favor himself over Obama by restricting access to PoC being allowed to vote, sending ICE to deport anyone who tries to vote without bringing their social security card and birth certificate, etc.
The SCOTUS is also on his side if there ever ends up being a debate about the results, so super fucked.
Obama should announce that’ll he’ll run, if Trump does. That alone would probably end the whole idea.

Obama would still win.
Maybe so. But his backers won’t. And without those, he’s toast.
