You can rethink the engineering with electric motors.
One of the other limitations is that you’re stuck with propellers if you’re using electric motors, so your top speed is going to be significantly slower than jets. Unless you do the Tu-95 thing with contra-rotating props whose tips exceed the speed of sound, and then you have monstrous noise problems.

You can do ducted fans, which is what a turbofan minus the turbine is.
