I looked up online and so far what I found indicates that it should be possible to create a PCI adapter for T2 SoC chip:

With a T2 chip bastardized from a decommissioned or a malfunctioning Mac and an such adapter, a Hackintosh could be a thing for several more years, including pretty much all the same functionality as with the current Apple Silicon line.
The only thing required would be reverse-engineering the pinout, but that can’t be too difficult, given how the SoC is connected to the well-documented Intel chipset, plus a ROM chip.
I can imagine how the adapter would have a BGA socket that would enable to attach the chip without soldering at all.
