Maybe, I would imagine if the X-Men were to be rebooted in the MCU First Class & Apocalypse would be Semi-Canon, like The 2003 Universal Hulk movie is. Just so they wouldn't have to go over the whole Professor X/Magneto/X-Men origin story again. :P The 2003 Hulk isn't the least bit MCU canon, it's semi canon well the origin story part

Why would they do that, though? The only reason Sony made a deal to lend Spider-Man out to Marvel is that they are in a really bad financial situation, but Fox on the other hand are still having tonnes of success with their movies. Why would you deny yourself the ablity to make more money though, an Avengers X-MEN movie produce by Marvel and Fox will make alot more money than Deadpool, X-MEN Apocalypse so on and so forth, Deadpool 2 can end up being the reboot where they keep the actors, but some of the events are non-canon or they can make the events canon, Fox can continue to make the X-MEN spin-offs, and solo movies with Marvel's guidance, and Marvel can help Fox not screw up the Fantastic Four and Fox makes money on the Fantastic Four movies because of this.

To sum it up Avengers X-MEN movie a main installment in a rebooted X-MEN Franchise, a great MCU Fantastic Four movie, Deadpool sequel/reboot(Doesn't matter the same cast is appearing Marvel has no reason to recast Deadpool maybe every one else but Deadpool will stay),  MCU X-Force Movie, and MCU New Mutants movie

making 1 billion, 500-600 million,  500 million, 500 million respectively which is more than they would make dumping the Fantastic Four rights to Marvel, and not rebooting the X-MEN They wouldn't do it unless they were desperate, though, and they're the furthest thing from desperate. They own a hundred other popular movie and TV franchises besides the X-Men, and they're raking in cash from all ends. To name just a few examples they were the highest-earning studio of 2014, The Martian spent longer at the top of the box office than any other movie last year and The Revenant is #2 at the box office right now. It's not about desperation, it's about money making, not about desperation, as a company you don't do good things out of desperation you do those things to stay out of desperation
