Is it possible to get the Shoguns to win the Boshin War? And what would the outocome be?
 
It really depends on what you mean by "win" and what you mean by "Boshin War"...

Because had the Tokugawa Shogunate been more willing to modernize it's armed forces aggressively like some of the rebel domains, it could very well have managed to remain in power...

However I'd wager you'd be hard pressed to save the Shogunate with a POD of 1868 or later.
