I was reading a circuits book today that spent more time on the construction

regular old polarized electrolytic capacitors it occurred to me that you just
might be able to turn an electrolytic capacitor into one bit of non-volatile
memory by purposely applying the correct or reverse polarity to form or remove
the dielectric

No you couldn't. That's not what happens.
