Will a Croatian visa be valid for the Schengen area on and after Jan. 1st 2023?

Yes,

The decision of granting accession to the Schengen Area for Croatia states :

Article 2

National short-stay visas issued by Croatia before 1 January 2023
shall remain valid during their period of validity, for the purpose of
transit through the territory of other Member States or intended stays
on their territories not exceeding 90 days in any 180-day period,
insofar as they have recognised such short-stay visas for those
purposes, in accordance with Decision No 565/2014/EU. The conditions
set out in that Decision shall apply.

A Croatian-issued short-stay visa will automatically be "converted" to a Schengen visa and be valid for all Schengen members, this doesn’t seem to apply to long-stay D visas issues by Croatia
