Yes.  Installing the Xcode.app beta with support for Apple Silicon Macs and adding +universal to your default variants will be a good first step.  Note that you will need to explicitly set the universal arches in macports.conf right now (unless you are running on a DTK) since the value is based on the version of macOS and not the value of the SDK.

Because not all of us will have early access to the new hardware (I won’t personally, and happen to have ordered the latest MacBook Air with an i7 CPU a few days ago…), it means that those who will will probably have to bear the burden of testing a lot of ports and reporting errors, while the maintainers won’t have the ability to test the fixes.
