Yes. Nothing stops you from reversing earlier. Reversing as soon as you know you will not pay limits interest exposure.

Provisions

Rule 37, CGST Rules 2017; Sec 50(3), CGST Act 2017

Analysis

If a supplier relationship has ended with a dispute and payment is unlikely, reverse the ITC in Table 4(B)(2) now. If you later pay, you can reclaim. This is cleaner than waiting and paying interest. Note the reason in your working.
