I don't see how. According to Wikipedia, states with 203 electoral votes have passed legislation - but states with pending legislation only bring in another 65 votes, which is still short of the 270 votes needed - and that's only if all the states with pending legislation pass it instead of sending it back to committee, deferring it, or outright defeating it.
It may pass eventually, but I certainly don't see it happening before next year's elections.
The 2024 legislation might put them over but it's a long shot.
