It could I believe, if you own 51% of the steem supply you could vote for your witnesses and take control of the chain however I think a hardfork could just make your attack obsolete, it's a very good question that needs more digging my knowledge on DPOS is limited cheers!
Scary stuff... I need to read more too, the whole thing is still very foreign to me honestly. Thanks for the reply :)
