Considering Croatia used T-34, M18 and M36 in the Homeland War... I'd say it is quite likely.
If things go smoothly (which they never do) in transferring Leos, Bradley's and all the other armored vehicles by mid spring Ukraine will have two new battalions. This is the list Relic made of what it could look like.
Battalion #1
44x Leopard 2 MBTs
109x Bradley IFVs
50x Stryker APCs
20x AMX-10RC
50x HMMWVs
18x M109A6 Paladin howitzers
Battalion #2
44x Leopard 2 MBTs
50x CV90 IFVs
40x Marder IFVs
20x AMX-10RC
50x Stryker APCs
50x HMMWVs
12x Archer howitzers
6x AS90 howitzers
These two should be used in Zapo offensive it will be tough but they'll reach the Azov sea cutting off Crimea. The 90 upgraded Czech T-72's and Polish PT-91's should be sent to the east where less capable Russian forces are deployed. It's been almost 6 months since they have tried to take Bakhmut... It shouldn't be as difficult when Ukraine launches an offensive there. Question is where to send the Challengers and Abrams. Maybe create a third battalion which is very likely since the flood gates have been open in sending western armor. 109 Bradley's is just the beginning including Stryker's and Paladins.

People should take note. Next time when NATO helps Pakistan instead of India, remember this conflict.
As per news reports After tanks , Ukraine asking for F16 . Wonder how it ll work . It requires extensive training for shifting to a new kind of fighter jet . If there is such plan , the training must have started already .
Training began a while back. Most of 2022 has been spent training Ukraine rather than deploying the equipment and manpower.
