would need a microphone socket

The simple answer to your question is "No".

The microphone would need to feed into the CD player's amplifier circuit, with a mixer built into it in order to get the balance between the outputs from the CD and the microphone correct. Normal CD players don't offer that function.

The earphone socket is solely for output from the amplifier circuit; it's not an input.

You'd need to buy something like this:
