if you measured the frame rails spacing, that should be your answer.
if you built a frame under the rails, that would help, but the wheel would be under the frame , not between it.
Back many yrs, I use to carry 2 spares in my 3/4 ton, standing up in the box, 2 because it looked neater, one on each side , for balance you know.

If I remember correctly to get a 35" spare under a Gen4 truck, members reported having to lower the air pressure in the spare to get it to edge into place. This may apply to the Gen5 trucks.

Move the exhaust & dump it before the Rear Right Tire
That would give you at least 3" near the Axle Housing

Then modify the tire rack that holds the tire in place from below
