No, because that's not the same thing:
1) JS opt-in is an advanced setting, not a prompt dialog that appears when a page tries to run it and gets remembered on a site-by-site basis.
2) Until (unless) WASM gets full reign of web APIs, which is a long way off, it will continue to have very sparse legitimate use-cases. Are you trying to play a game, use Photoshop-the-web-app, or use an encrypted messaging service? Click "Yes". Otherwise, it's probably safe to say you don't want whatever-it-is running. It's rare that the average user would want to disable JS on a given site. It's much more likely that they'd want to disable WASM (just like it's much more likely that they'd want to disable geolocation, or push notifications).
