How to hack TOR? Possible scenario

Imagine an attacker has the ability to intercept all your traffic after it leaves your router.
*Say they intercept it at the ISP level and is able to hijack it to a rogue server.
* That rogue server acts as a fake TOR entry node.
* When you try to establish a circuit, it provides your client with fake public keys for three non existing nodes and tricks it into beleiving you have a working tor circuit.
* As you start browsing or sending data, since it already knows your three publick keys, it decrypts and logs all your activities and then forwards your packets to a real tor circuit it had previously established.
* It logs the returning packets and forwards them encrypted to your client

Could it work?
