It might be in a few nations with strong public transit already like Japan and a number or European nations but honestly idk if it will ever happen in the USA at least not in my life time.
We went from zero cars to everything covered in cars in a lifetime, we can go back in a lifetime.
Attitudes around public transport have to change. It's seen as a thing poor people use in some cities so the affluent kill expansion efforts. And even where it doesn't have that stigma, nobody wants to pay for infrastructure.
