Muggles cannot become wizards/witches .
While studying is required to use magic effectively, someone who wasn't born with magic cannot be a wizard no matter how much they study. Muggleborns like Lily Potter or Hermione Granger are born with the ability to do magic despite nonmagical parentage.
A Muggle gaining one wouldn't just effectively have a stick in their hand but could produce an uncontrollable magical effect. Muggles can't necessarily perform magic, but with a wand, they could cause some to manifest in an uncontrollable manner.
The Muggle and wizarding world
Thus, most Muggles are either afraid of magic or believe it to be nothing but a childish fantasy. Wizards and witches hide their world with Muggle-Repelling Charms, and if a Muggle witnesses a magical event or sees a magical creature such as a dragon, their memories are erased.

Harry James Potter holds half-blood status in Rowling's imagined wizarding world because his mother is Muggle-born and his father is pure-blood.
Originally Answered: What would happen if a muggle tried to cast a spell with a wand? It wouldn't work. Wands are means to channel the magic that is inherent to a person, or more specifically a witch or a wizard. Muggles, have no inherent magic and therefore can't channel it, in any possible way.
TL;DR: The muggles would win, unless the wizards maintain the element of surprise, but most individual wizards who want to escape the muggles will be able to. First off, we should consider whether the author has anything to say about this debate, but in fact J. K. Rowling has said very little.

Diagon Alley is a high street located in London. It is accessible to the wizarding world, to which it is something of an economic hub, but hidden from Muggles (non-magical people). However, Muggles are allowed access to it if they need to accompany their Muggle-born magical children.
Mudbloods: Wizards can be born from non-magical parents because these mutations can pop up out of nowhere.

Squibs: Would be the offspring that are born to magical parents but don't inherit the dominant wizarding gene.

In his prime, Dumbledore truly had no equal who could best him in a one-on-one wizarding duel. Even though he might seem like an old man, his wizarding power is on a completely different level. Gandalf is probably the most powerful opponent he'd ever face, but Dumbledore wouldn't go down without a fight.
