Domain name as a trademark - is it possible?

I found the domain interesting, beautiful and promising in terms of compliance with the direction of activity.
Under this name, the options in the ru, com and other zones are occupied by different companies. There was one completely interesting option. I would like to take it. I give approximate names for discussion:

"trade.center"
"auto.center"

I'm sure there are registered trademarks like "AUTO" and "TRADE". There is a verbal resemblance.
But if you do not use "WWW" and register a similar phrase, implying the creation of a TRADE.Center, AUTO.Center and topics on sites that do not affect trademarks of trademark holders.
Insert a word in the TK similar to the name of the domain ZONE: .center, .business, .xxx, .club, .travel, .name, .aero and the like, thus forming a new kind of Trademark - is it possible???
Can the owner of TM "TRADE" claim my domain "TRADE.CENTER" ???
Is it possible to register such phrases??? (if met by experience).
Where is the best place to register?
Your advice constructive and other nuances are interesting.
I re-read everything everywhere, but did not find a clear answer.

May request. But! if you have a trademark (for example, black and white) and it belongs to you and it is, for example, trade.center, and the Trade company has filed a lawsuit, then the domain will never be taken away from you.

Article 1483 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation "Grounds for refusal of state registration of a trademark" does not contain any obstacles to registering a website address as a trademark, since it is obvious that the website address has a distinctive ability, even though it consists of elements which individually do not have distinctiveness (see 1.1.2). What legal entities and individual entrepreneurs regularly use by registering domains as trademarks.
