No no no,
First of all, Kaaba it is most sacred holy site which Allah has chosen Makkah to be it’s official location.
To answer your hypothetical question: it is impossible to make another Kaaba anywhere around the world. You know why? Because, Allah Almighty has obliged mankind and Jinnkind to offer 5 daily prayers while facing Makkah. Allah didn’t even allowed for another Kaaba, why? Because, that will create to us big confusion as in “in which direction we should pray if there are 2 Kaabas” you get what I mean?
And besides, why would anyone need to make a 2nd Kaaba anywhere? I don’t see the point of this.
