That's a long shot. Unless this movement is interested in deposing the Supreme Leader and the rest of the clerics, even if Mousavi is elected (or selected), not a lot will change. The President doesn't hold a lot of power and any power granted to him can be taken back at the whim of the religious establishment.

I don't think this movement is going to lead to the storming of the castle gates, and really, anything short of that is nothing at all.
