In theory, sure.
But Ukraine is right on the border of Poland. And what we saw in Ukraine is by the time Paris, London and Berlin notice something is amiss, Russia has already achieved their goals. And the fear-of-triggering-WW3 goes both ways.
I can believe Poland would want to be well equipped, so they can hold out for a few days so their allies have time to mobilise.
