I mean, anybody can sue anybody, but I'm not sure the states could successfully enjoin the federal government from enforcing federal prohibition. In fact, I think this issue has already been settled in the courts. The federal government cannot compel the states to use state resources to enforce federal law, so there's that.
There is so much federal policy based on commerce clause jurisprudence that overturning Raich and others is a pipe dream. Change will only come from slow erosion by giving the Supreme Court the opportunity through some creative cases.
