Short answer: No, and I wouldn't hold my hold my breath waiting for an answer. VMware does not comment on dates and content of future product releases.
What little they have said is that they are working on Fusion virtualization on M! Macs. You can speculate on what that means, but it most likely will not allow you to run x86-based operating systems such as today's Windows 10 on M1 Macs. And no, you can't do it with Parallels either. They have beta code for virtualization on M1 Macs, but note that's for ARM versions of operating systems, not x86/x86_64. That won't allow you to run your Windows 10 guest.
The challenge here is having to emulate the x86 processor in order to run x86 operating systems on ARM processors. It's likely that you'll see Fusion deliver virtualization of ARM versions of Linux first, and then perhaps Windows on ARM should Microsoft ever deem to make that available as production code. That is unless VMware pulls a rabbit out of its hat.
And no, Rosetta 2 is not a solution for the virtualization problem (it's designed for macOS Intel applications, not operating system virtualization).
