It's ruled out by its very template. The Wire is unprecedented in how interwoven everything is. The show created a city, in full, by the end. True Detective is a bunch of miniseries with a loose correlation.

The Wire is the greatest show ever. Even if it's not your favorite (and it might not be mine), it's the greatest accomplishment in television history.
