The obstacle to stopping Brexit isn't time or Parliamentary procedures but the political will.
But are you really saying that Theresa May would go for it? Of course she wouldn't - it wouldn't make sense for her to do so and she would definitely lose her credibility entirely if she did.

My view is that the deal will probably pass, but a no-deal is what we'd have if it did not.

The only joker I can see in this pack is if the rejection of the deal panics the EU and they come back to offer us something better!

If I’m expected to trust a former Prime Minister on another continent then I’m sure our Prime Minister can be trusted to know this.
As I said before, this seems to have been a ruse to make her Brexiteer rivals think again. It may have worked.
