Was "Greater Serbia" a realistic prospect in the 1990's?

With no point of divergence before the Yugoslav Wars began in 1991, was there any realistic way for Serbia (whether under that name or Yugoslavia) to establish at least de facto control of the territories claimed under the Greater Serbia concept and hold them into the present? Follow the link for a map, but essentially, such a country would consist of our timeline's Serbia, part of Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Kosovo in their entirety. Much of the international community can dispute the legitimacy of the situation, but it must be as much of a political reality on the ground as the annexation of Crimea by Russia in 2014 in our timeline. If the full list of territories described earlier is simply impossible, then what would be the most Serbian nationalists could possibly achieve?

Assuming such a state is established and the Balkan Wars have essentially died down by the early 2000's, what then? Would there be any chance of normalized relations between this country and the West, or would it never be able to shake the status of rogue state and remain associated with Iran and North Korea in the public mind? How might the butterfly effect impact the wider world - especially Europe, considering the expansion of the European Union into former Warsaw Pact countries during this era?
 
Given that I stipulated a point of divergence no earlier than 1991, might a partially surviving Soviet Union (perhaps under the Union of Sovereign States model, or perhaps the August Putsch goes in a different direction entirely) somehow help achieve this?

Is difficult to know. (USS case) On one hand they will be trying to warm relations with USA and trying to save as much of their vital interests/territories as posible. OTOH they will havo do to budget cuts on military and they will have a shitload of military equipment laying around so they would we able to sell/gift a lot to the serbians but would put them in a bad spot with the west in a moment were they need to keep relations cordial enough while they pick themselves together as much as posible.
The may try to keep the sell/gift tocthe serbs a secret and keep the west happy but is likely to be leak soon.
The August Coup is another can of worms.

If the Serbs accepted Croatia's leaving Yugoslavia and put all their attention towards retaining Bosnia, Montenegro, Kosovo, and Macedonia then you could perhaps save Greater Serbia.

I don't think it's possible for Serbia to hold on to all of the territory they desire.
