I am skeptical.

Yes. Statistics indicate that 270000 Unexplosive Unreactive Armyguys provide a slight survivability chance to the t72.

Honestly, as defence against a weapon with a range of about 100m, a bunch of guys with guns and a higher vantage point would do the job.

As a sort of most horrifying and most ludicrous means possible of population control of the operating force employing this tactic anywhere near frontlines, or in areas that do not have air defence suitable to stop drones or aircraft, yes.

As a means of stopping anything that would not otherwise be stopped by the vehicle's armor, no.

Unless it turns out the vehicle is actually made of aluminum instead of steel. Then... maybe yes for 50 cal rounds coming from beyond about a kilometer, maybe less.
