That is certainly an option
If car makers can decide on a standard size/voltage/connector type pack.

Battery mass will kill that
The Tesla Model S battery pack weighs over half a metric tonne. You'd better come up with a standardised mechanism for handling and installing as well.

Never going to happen!

Conveyances will be blowing up left, right and centre!
