No, it hasn’t been released yet. You would need new motors and esc board at minimum.

it's not that simple. You'd need the new ESC boards and the new code that drives them. If you look at the videos comparing the MP and MP Platinum, you can see the motor startup is different. Probably a lot of other code changes for the new motors as well,

No, we don't have the news about the Mavic Pro Platinum ESC can be compatible with Mavic Pro. So it doesn't support at the moment.

The first couple of Mavics were shipped with Diesel engines, before the well known scandal...

Actually, they were AMGs, but they lied about efficiency and had to call them back.

The engines are the same, the ESC, electronic speed controller has changed from square wave to sine wave power to the motors.

No change in the motors, just the power signal going to them.

As people have already stated - You would need to replace the ESC's, props,board, motors as they are new on the Platinum version. Easy on a racing FPV quad but a little more complex on DJI equipment.
