I do believe that is the plan, though maybe it'll come 1 year sooner than the Dems intended... The question is, will they poll the same question for Kamala? Probably not.
Going back in the time machine to Richard Nixon, they've already run this play, there is precedent for how it may work out.
Richard Nixon is president, Spiro Agnew is VP; the Vietnam war is on fire, Watergate, currency meltdown. What did they do?
Spiro Agnew resigns as vice president, then Gerald Ford is approved by Congressional vote to be installed as vice president replacement. Next, Richard Nixon resigns from US president therefore promoting the unelected VP Gerald Ford into the seat as president. Which he holds for two years.
I used to think Biden would just resign after a year or two, siting medical reasons ect whatever and let Kamala be president.
I honestly don't see this as happening anymore, unless it is a very BRIEF Kamala president to get her identity groups as "first xy president" in and then drop her fast. However, your example is actually a very likely possibility due to just how naturally dis-likable Kamala is as a person.
