Yes, but considering they're still in Alpha with Gingerbread it will probably be a while, especially since no one really knows how hard it will be to port to ICS.
The Cyanogen team is not that far behind. CyanogenMod 7 was first released early this year for Gingerbread. The last update was back in October with version 7.1. It's probably the final update for Gingerbread. I'm running it now on my Nook Color.
Work on CyanogenMod 9 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is well underway.
They mean Alpha for the TouchPad, which is right it is Alpha right now, but CM7 for other phones is pretty stable and working fine (except for brand new just released phones).
My guess is the first to release outside of Samsung will be the modders of the world, since I doubt any of the companies who make the hardware can get it done before them :P

Hope Cyanogen can get this modded to the HP Touchpad asap. Would be sweet...EpsilonKore - Monday, November 14, 2011 - link

So it seems it'll be at least 2 months more for the Nexus S.Mugur - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link
... and any current CM7 device? :-)umbrel - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link
I think some modders will want to get it running a real Android, kind of jailbraking from Amazon.
