I definitely hope so! But I'm thinking it won't come to older cars. The new 2019 suspension may be physically upgraded to have a "wider range" of stiffness settings available.
If the current hardware's "Comfort" is "as soft as it can go", they won't be able to tune the comfort mode any "softer" than it is now.
I'm OK with the comfort setting now, but having a "wider range" for free would definitely be welcome for times when I'm driving my grandparents in the car and want the car to be as soft as possible.

I wonder what aspect of the mid model update is delaying the cars. The C&D article states:
"the cars arrive in U.S. dealerships by early 2019."
