Not quite. Individual States can’t override the Constitution. Any unconstitutional change could be met with litigation.

Only the State’s Electors vote for the presidency. Electors who do not, are faithless electors. A July 2020 Supreme Court ruling said electors may only vote for the States popular vote, those that do not, can be fined or replaced.
