In that cases it's very important to know where you wish to go:

- You should try to exchange pawns (no matter if you exchange your three
pawns for white one).
- You need to avoid white having a passed pawn.
- You are interested in exchanging white bishop (the ending 2knight+king
vs king is draw)

I think this ending gives you great practical drawing chances

I forgot to add that your b pawns are good distractions, I do not think
you will promote them, but you can use them to distract black pieces
trying to capture you the d white pawn.

I would say yes, because how does white win it is just as valid of a
