Nope, from what I understand, if Prop 8 can amend the constitution by revising the constitution, then Anti Prop 8 can amend the constitution by revising the constitution right back.
In other words, if the judges ok Prop 8 (which says marriage is between a man and a woman) as a valid ballot measure, then another measure which says marriage is between a man and a goat is just as valid.
(That's not to say getting the legislature involved for a revision effort would not be wise, and would not be undertaken ... but a revision is pretty much not gonna happen either way. I think it requires a super-majority of both the legislature and the voters, so it's pretty much out of the question ... if my understanding is correct.)
