The question would hinge on wether or not a drawn out war would deprive the Brits of the desire to fight, not the capacity. If so, then yes. If not, then a British victory would still be a certainty.

Germany's ability to wage a long war was incredibly limited whereas the Brits had the rich resources and help of its empire to sustain it.

Such a conflict would mirror the Anglo-French conflicts of the 19th and 18th centuries.

I apologize for not clarifying my point. From the time the Brits are thrown off the continent at Dunkirk in 1940 until D-Day in 1944, the UK had no direct conflict with Germany in Europe. I'm only suggesting that the Reich keep it that way. Don't waste the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain. Simply fortify the Atlantic Wall with AA batteries and force Britain to decide whether or not to invade.
