Yes. And there may not be much time window benefit to having a NemID (_and_ resident?).

"All persons resident in Denmark and issued with the special Danish NemID login solution will receive their test result at www.sundhed.dk no later than 48 hours after the test."

The Danish authorities may well be a very different story about checking the test result details, but I haven’t seen or asked how this is being done on arrival.
I think my plan will be, for one or both of us, to take a test maybe two weeks ahead, then, both of us, stay at home even more than so far until departure, reserve the tickets halfway inbetween following a negative test result, take the test at CPH with high probablity of negative, stay at the family summer house for the first two days.

Here’s some Scandinavian entry stuff elsewhere on today’s FT, just in case you haven't seen it.
