Iran already could. All the pieces were there as well as the plan. It's that US & Israel attacked first. The same would have applied even worse for JCPOA extension scenario. Ultimately, so long as Iran is strong enough and radical enough, it will use its power on the strait next door.

But all that is theory, clearly they didn't try it or feel the need to do so until it was invaded for no reason by two violent warmongering countries. The count of wars started by these two regimes is far higher than those started by Iran. The blame of the closure of the strait squarely lies on America and Israel.
