Would it have been possible at some point during the 30's, for a lone soldier to assassinate Stalin and several his closet associates? What would have been the consequences and who could have taken charge?

I'm imagining a high ranking soldier of one of an ethnicity that Stalin didn't like. Maybe the soldier saw his family get wiped out by Stalin, and during one the purges he knows he'll be targeted for one reason or another. It could even be a small group of soldiers.
