No.
P&R between professional and semi-professional leagues doesn't work.
If it did, there'd be a clamour for the introduction (not reintroduction, note, but
introduction) of P&R between the semi-pro and amateur ranks. But not one of the ending-semi-automatic-promotion-and-relegation-between-SL-and-NL-as-was-will-kill-the-game crowd ever – not ever in four years of 'debate' - once pushed for P&R into and from NL2 from below, not even when the division below was nominally part of the National Leagues.
And for a good reason.
