Possible to virtualize OpenGL > 2?

I'm working on an app that will run on linux with an NVIDIA graphics card using OpenGL. I would like to be able to run that environment virtualized (albeit very slow) for testing. I've got linux running in VMWare but with mesa the vernon of OpenGL I get is only 2. Is there anyway to virtualize a higher version of OpenGL?

Funnel money and effort into Mesa to boost work on the OpenGL 3+ state tracker(s).

Alternatively, petition Khronos for a reference implementation.

As of Mesa 20.2 llvmpipe supports OpenGL 4.5.
