I think that could be a reasonable option for consideration.
But, it would mean Trump lost the negotiation since he promised Mexico would fully pay for the wall for months on end. He had thousands of devotees screaming, "Build That Wall!!" at his rallies. To which Trump would holler, "Who's gonna pay for it?!" and the devotees would scream, "MEXICO!!"
So, even if it was a fair solution which Mexico would agree to, I do not believe that President Trump would consider it -- his history proves that he's very ego-driven and must create the image that he's THE Winner and those with whom he's in negotiation or competition are Losers.
