Hardware aside, to my knowledge no one is really actively developing any of the Switch emulators due to the prior legal action that was taken.
Now, eventually it's possible someone might do it for the Switch 2, but I wouldn't expect anything quick as whomever does so will very likely incur the mighty wrath of Nintendo's legal team.
