I know a very similar question was asked here earlier, but mine is coming from the opposite side, if a normal type like Furfrou acquired Pixilate from another Pokemon let's say by Role Play, and it used Return, even though Return becomes a fairy type move, would Return gain STAB if used by a normal type

I don't think so.
Its different from the one asked In October because they had a fairy type with Pixilate use a normal type move rather than a Normal type use a normal type move

No, it does not gain STAB, as the move turns from Normal to Fairy, even if the ability is acquired via Role Play.
