Yes, it is possible.

But there are too many unknowns to answer your question with any more certainty.

It depends on:

What was the reason for the violation? [Non-reporting? Non-payment? New Offense? Failed Drug Screen? etc.]

How long was he successfully on probation? [10 months? 10 Weeks? 10 Days?]

Has he ever been on probation (and/or in violation of probation) in the past for any other charges?
