The ‘Masked Singer’ host would be keen to present the “amazing” ITV1 daytime show with the 42-year-old television personality after filling in on the sofa after Phillip Schofield, 61, resigned.
He told the Mail Online: “I think I definitely would, I really loved doing it. It felt, from a comic's point of view, just an amazing show.
“If you can do ‘This Morning’ for two-and-a-half hours, you're in, you can do everything. She was so good, [ Holly] I just learnt so much from her, she was so professional."
The 38-year-old comedian recalled one particular moment when he realised the amount of preparation Holly does for each show.
He added: “There was an amazing moment where I didn't know what to make notes on, on my first day. I looked over at Holly and she's made all these script notes. She just puts the effort in even after this long, I genuinely learned a lot.”
Joel - who is hosting the National Television Awards for the third time on September 5 - admitted he was “so happy for” Alison Hammond with her nod in presenter category.
He said: “It's really great to see her on it again. What's beautiful about the NTAs is that it's voted by people at home. It is decided by the people who watch telly and that's why Ant and Dec have had one for the last 22 years because they are unbelievably good at their job.
“It's lovely to see that they are still at the top. It's the dream for all of us to be having this conversation in 30 years time, that would be the absolute dream.
“I'm so happy for her, to see her on that list is absolutely fantastic.”
The ‘In A Shout’ presenter admitted that his “very pregnant” wife Hannah Cooper, 34, could go into labour during the ceremony but that there's others lined up as a replacement.
Joel told The Sun newspaper: "[ITV bosses] told me there is a contingency. They won't tell me who the contingency is but the best thing is everybody is there, every presenter going.
“What I would do is just give a section to everyone — you know, just get Stephen Mulhern to do one, Holly Willoughby to do the next bit, get Bradley Walsh on…”
