The title is pretty self explanatory. I will join the church this upcoming Easter and want to know if I can be enroled in the scapular before then.

Ask the priest who will be doing the investing. I’m presuming the answer is probably “yes” if you are planning to join the Church soon, but he’ll know for sure.
 
As has been mentioned before on the forum the Sisters of Carmel are a schismatic group and have no authority to talk about the Scapular. Unfortunately, their link comes up at the top in Google searches so it is constantly posted here, and we constantly have to tell people that the Sisters of Carmel are in schism and are not actual Carmelites.

The official, correct and current catechesis on the Brown Scapular from the official Carmelites is here:
