In theory, maybe. But I think the bigger issue is that at 14, a kid doesn’t have a real great ability to deal with drunk people, or is responsible enough to check IDs or any of the other things required to serve alcohol. Can you imagine a 14 year old in a TIPs training class?
Edit: and imagine how shitty a 14 year old girl would get treated serving booze to drunk assholes
Or how shitty a 14 y.o would feel if they over-served someone without realizing it, and felt responsible if something happened to them. Or could the 14 y.o still be criminally charged for over-serving.

None of it seems like the smartest idea

California here, at 14 I didn’t quite yet grasp the “you can say no to people” thing yet. Definitely not the age you should be dealing with drunk men.
Sure, not all men… but enough men that assuming all men is the safer bet.
