As the minimum amount of uninterrupted residence time in Finland is 5 years: not yet. Wait till you fulfill all of the requirements and only then apply: https://migri.fi/en/citizenship-application

Also depends on what ground your A permit is right now. If you are on Working permit or anything other than family ties, the residence time required is 5 years; but if you have a Finnish spouse (‘Spouse’ refers to your husband or wife, your cohabiting partner or your registered same-sex partner.) then 4 uninterrupted years is enough.
