Unlikely, this was just a quick jam developed in a single week, not a commercial product.

I wish this would come to Steam, it's more cohesive than many overpriced AAA games. Even if they charged the minimal amount for it (given its short length), it would be very successful.

It's a wonderful bit of fanservice that put a smile on my face, but I wouldn't call it cohesive at all, it's exactly as rough around the edges as I expect a one week project to be. I think general audiences on Steam would be put off by the camera being just as awful as a real N64 game. I'm the type of person who can see a certain kusoge (affectionate) charm in that, but I can also see that precision platforming in 3D isn't actually good, and I think billing it as a professional product on Steam would just lead to people calling it kusoge (derogatory).

I think it depends. There's an audience for everything, but from my experience it wasn't that bad.
I think people just aren't very used to 3D platformers at all, which isn't surprising given the number of Celeste players that have admitted to "never playing a 2D platformer before". I saw streamers with hundreds, maybe thousands of hours into the game having trouble thinking in three dimensions, which was actually pretty funny/entertaining.
Celeste's following is pretty big and devoted, and we have overpriced unplayable garbage that sells a lot for some reason, so I know the fanbase would love another way to support the developers, especially since this isn't "unplayable garbage", but I love some N64 jank so it may have gone completely over my head.
I don't know, maybe they could even add this into the base game after finishing Farewell?
