If the current coalition collapses, does that mean an AfD chancellor is possible in the next years?

They may become the largest party in the Bundestag, but I don’t think they can win an outright parliamentary majority. Nobody would form a coalition with them, so while there might be an AfD chancellor, they wouldn’t get anything done.
Parties need to start looking at why the AfD has so much support and consider which policies or positions to adopt in order to win back voters. Take away the extreme or fringe ideas the afd has and change some of their suggested means to achieve goals, but parties need to consider realigning on what matters to voters in a more serious way.
It’s likely the CDU would gladly join them to make a coalition, they are preparing for that since Merz got voted for head of the CDU Party…
On state level theyre already pushing for years to allow official coalition.
