You can buy them right now, there's more links in the 18650masterrace subreddit, but here's just one:

However good luck finding a BMS that works for it's particular voltage range, don't think AliExpress has any yet.
I haven't seen any posts from those diy type folks experimenting with them yet. Sodium ion cells just became available within the last few months or so.
