Is it possible for a naturally occuring star system to have 120 planets?

In my book series (link here), there is a star system at the northern edge of the galaxy called the Ryu system. I am planning for this star system to be huge, encompassing 120 planets.

The vast majority are too close to the star to be habitable, while all in the habitable zone except 2 (Ryu 97 and Ryu 108) are uninhabitable due to toxic atmospheres. The rest are too far from the star and thus too cold for habitation.

How large would the star have to be for this to be plausible as a naturally occuring system, and if this could not be made possible by changing the size of the star, how could I get this setup to work?
