Probably not. The Tower card symbolizes random, unpredictable calamity. This seems to indicates two things here:
(1) That Corvus and Ahriman will probably interrupt our plans in some way, shape or form.
(2) They are probably only here because of a rare freak accident.

However, we did give ourselves luck as a trait, so the odds might be slightly more in our favor
It predicts random, unpredictable calamity. It doesn't specify who that calamity is for and both of our other visions involved forces which wouldn't necessarily effect us directly until after they concluded. I'd wager any calamity related to these two is aimed more at the imperium of man than us.

Oh hey. Page 666. Something Slaanesh related would be good here.

This does beg the question whether alternative canon Aeldari hero Echos might also appear, like some kind of Harlequin hero from the canon black library.

If they're associated with the Black Library they have easier methods to get in and out of different timelines. They just need to hang a right at the Orangutan, and turn purple when they hit last Tuesday.

Supposedly there are actual webway routes that can enable time travel. Just as far as I'm aware they are the kind of thing that GW says, it's a plot device that's only going to show up for this series so we are going to allow our (typically Imperium) protags to use and say that for whatever reason the Eldar don't and in fact can't.

If such were possible here I imagine it would be a horrible idea to use them given that unless it would be important enough for the Laughing God to protect you, the one in control of your route would be She Who Thirsts. That is assuming that it doesn't just end up with the two fighting over it and bad ending the attempt anyway.

Apparently the Laughing God controls the route and generally blocks access to it by Eldar because of the risk they'll try to avert the Fall (and possibly make it even worse).

I'm so appreciative that I'm able to learn this all second hand rather than experiencing the asswipery that seems to be typical GW plot contrivances. I'm definitely not in their consumer demographic, and I like it that way.

If it involves giving Choas any kind major advantage for the millenia to come, that's bad for us regardless.
one persons calamity is another's golden ending
Excusing a small list of exceptions, I don't think anything Ahriman does is anyone's idea of a golden ending.

Well in this case the Tower appears to be The Dark Tower, so let's all just hope that Corax doesn't forget the face of his father.

I doubt a pair of echos of a primarch and a particularly noteworthy legionary are going to do anything which leads to a multiple millennia long chaos advantage. It's definitely not a certain thing between them not even necessarily being pro chaos versions of themselves before we account for a much changed galaxy they'll have greater difficulty navigating without clashing with whatever Aeldari federation of craftworlds is active in the region.

Regardless, like the rest it's still not an immediately relevant issue that's going to impact the coming turn. Let's not make a mountain avalanche out of a pair brawling clowns tumbling down a hill. Vect's stuff won't really become relevant for another millennia or two, and I think we can assume these two aren't going to show up in the galactic north tomorrow.

Hence why I've been using words and phrases like "probably" and "if it involves".
 
I think this mostly may be a warning not to rely on canon over much.
These were reward interludes for the quest getting quest of the month. I'm pretty sure their actual premonitions in quest that inform us of potentially events that are still in flux which we might influence, but also aren't required to deal with if we don't want to.
