Everything is possible, like PS4 was over Switch by a bigger margin as well; but it doesn't matter, both are selling well and are profitable. For the year 2018, Switch has zero chances on earth to pass PS4, it will never. 2019 ? it doesn't matter anymore, as Switch does not even belong to the same Generation of PS4 and X1, it's a new console, and Sony/MS will be preparing for the Next Gen.

Apart from yourself, and maybe a few others, I don't really see anybody else caring about 'generations'. It is a term that is handy to reference an approximate era in gaming but the definition falls apart when applied to the current landscape. If PS5 & XB2 launch midway through Switch's life then what - who decides which gen it'll fall into - you? And if the PS4 continues to sell for another 3-4 years then it's overlap with Switch could well be larger than PS5... When all manufacturers launch their consoles at roughly the same time, with roughly the same frequency then the term works, when they don't, it falls apart - which is where we are now...
I know you are keen to keep the term alive so that you can gush over PS4's victory but it is problematic to say the least...
