[LOTR] Would the Ring have been destroyed if Gollum didn't charge Frodo and fell off?

Was Frodo just about to keep the Ring to himself? Would have Sam been able to stop him?

I believe Tolkein himself said that Frodo could not destroy the ring by choice, no one could.

If Gollum had not attacked him, the Nazgul would have shown up and gotten him to come out so they could snatch him.
