get/start off on the wrong foot

[Daruma]

Hello.

Merriam-Webster's Learner's Dictionary
get/start off on the wrong foot : to begin a relationship badly
▪ They got off on the wrong foot when they first met and they've disliked each other ever since.

Can I say "start out on the wrong foot" in place of "start off on the wrong foot"?
It's not correct to say "get out on the wrong foot" instead of "get off on the wrong foot," is it?

Thank you.
