No. As a researcher, your exempt period is two years. even if you are pursuing a PHD degree. The exempt period is based on calendar years so your exempt period ended after 2023.
One saving grace that I noticed in the Belgium/US tax treaty is that Article 20 1B (111) states that $2000 of US income can be exempt from income for a period of five years. This is something unique that I have never seen before.
