Yes.

One possibility would be to count how many times has changed the
"Ref time" field in chronyc tracking, e.g. repeating the command once
per second.
If you changed the number of updates in makestep from 3 to 1, you
could just check if the Reference ID is not 0.0.0.0, or use the
chronyc waitsync command.
Another possibility is to enable the tracking log and count lines that
don't have the 0.0.0.0 IP address.
