Yes, yes, absolutely yes, the true death toll of SARS-CoV-2 in the USA will ultimately only be known by measuring "excess deaths" because of the purposeful, knowing, malicious obstruction of testing, data collection, data compilation by Trump and other Republicans.

And the gulf between current excess deaths and recognized Covid-19 deaths is large. Back when the Covid death number was about 150K the excess death number was 200K+ compared to recent prior years. With the ongoing sabotage of testing/reporting data in Repuke-controlled states like FL and TX and others, that gap is probably going to widen in time.
