That's within the realistic realms of possibility, sure. We don't know what the reality of the Russian forces in Ukraine looks like overall. It's really hard to know what the morale is like, how serious and widespread the equipment shortages are etc.
But given that they are still a very large army on the defense with plenty of time to prepare for what's coming, they'll have to suffer a complete, history making collapse of morale and/or organization to actually lose all of the ground even this year, and even if Ukraine wins all the ground that doesn't in itself end the war. The war ends when someone in Russia takes out Putin.
There's really no historical precedent for a war like this.
