Yes, most certainly this was the entire point of the elaborate weapon delivery schemes. To not escalate this to a world war by sending in NATO forces.

If it weren't working Russia would have steamrolled Ukraine in a week. Agree or disagree with the policy, but the US is threading the needle between giving Ukraine enough support to keep Russia from winning quickly and decisively, while not putting troops on the ground in a direct fight with Russia which would cause World War 3.If that is indeed the goal, it has worked thus far. I disagree that this is a wise path, but it's their stated strategy.
