If you install a weatherproof isolator and from the isolator feed the MCC you can regard the pool as a fixed apppliance .
The fixed appliance would still need to be electrically safe to sign the COC
The minute you take another light circuit or plug circuit from the MCC then it would become a DB
I disagree with Mellet - A "Pool DB "need not automatically be a DB but could be a MCC
