That would require altering the constitution, but so would making the office of the president a personal possession that can be gifted to another.
I'm pretty sure Trump would get served a Kennedy special if he attempted to make himself dictator for life. If the state didn't, a private citizen most certainly would.
I was speaking with the assumption that he kills several other political figures then himself before the end of the term, then it becomes an issue for a will.
It wouldn't matter who he kills, it wouldn't make the office of the president become something a former or current president can gift to another, whether in a will or by any other means.

It may not be intended that way, but I am sure Giuliani would try to make an argument in favor of it.

I didn't know that, but I am not surprised.
