Not too likely, unless it came into close proximity of the Earth. Such a
planet would enter at superorbital speed, pass perihelion, and then fly
off into space, never to return.
Theres a asteroid following earth, a visiting large planet could and
probably will change the planetary alinement
Insufficient gravitational attraction. Do the orbital mechanics!
