Question

Is Zoom deductible for W-2 employees?

I work for a company that's contracted out with the City of LA. We meet with each client on average 3-5 hours per month. The clients, young in age, are super familiar with Zoom. Sadly, the company I work for is pretty small, and doesn't want to pay for Zoom. I have no real objections to upgrading my Zoom subscription (for sanity's sake- it's hard enough keeping a 16 year old's attention, having to log off every 40 minutes is not ideal), is it a possibility to add my the Zoom fees as a deduction? Even if I'm not self-employed?

No.  Congress eliminated all employee work related deductions for tax years 2018-2025.
