No
The establishment already has 3 votes by default, and needs only 2 yes votes — an easy thing to do, and almost certain if supreme court is already stuffed by pro-establishment judges for a few government terms.
And candidates for supreme court appointment almost always come from seniormost district court judges, which were simple majority appointed.
And if supreme court appointment keeps getting vetoed, they can simply do nothing, and wait for appointment by default of seniormost district court judge.
And all of this does not matter at all when IDF intervenes.

Also, the Supreme Court has retained its option for interfering with the composition of Knesset block, and putting an opposition member in it, which would make it an effective 1 member block.
