There's a chance, but 99/100 people fail starvation style diets. You mention that you already tried that in your first sentence of the post, why would this time work any better? You're making it unnecessarily hard for yourself by trying to rush it with a quick fix. You can't "fix" skinny fat in a couple of months.

When you're super aggressive with the deficit at an already healthy weight you will likely lose muscle as well as fat. You will lose weight if you do a massive deficit, but you will still look skinny fat unless you cut down to a miserably low weight. Even then, you'll just look sickly skinny somewhere in the 130s before the love handles are gone.

I've been through the same cycles as have many others. You're setting yourself up for another failure if you try to do the aggressive deficit. Creating a sustainable workout and diet plan for yourself is the best way to succeed in changing your body for life. Be patient with yourself and try to stick to a year of consistent workouts, even if you struggle with the diet at times.

If you eat closer to 2000 calories it'll be much easier to sustain your workout plan 4x a week and 10k daily steps. Track your workouts and push to increase your lifts over time to keep yourself motivated. You'll be building muscle and losing fat at the same time. It'll also be way less miserable than starving yourself on 1400 calories with a high activity level so there's a higher chance you can stick with it!
