Is it legitimately possible?
My Leia is 4* 29/65, farmboy 3* 10/30, and OB locked at 13/80. I am finishing TFP currently 6* 71/100. Even if I were to spend some money, would it be possible? What would be the best route to obtain ...

It depends on how much you're willing to spend, honestly.
Firstly, how many arena tokens do you have? Could you finish Leia by just farming by the end of the event? If not, then there's no point (unless you REALLY want to try your luck with the crystal pack they'll unveil at the start of the event)
Secondly, Luke requires luck from guild shipments or you can farm him on his hard node or through cantina. Keep in mind that farming Luke through the cantina will conflict with working on OB.
Thirdly, How many crystals do you have saved? Can you refresh multiple times per day on the cantina to get OB (and possibly finish Luke)? According to a cantina calculator, it will take you 12 days at 4 refreshes per day and 10 days with 5 per day.
Lastly, there will be the $20 packs for each of the 4 farmable characters containing 80 shards each. This will move your OB time times from 12 to 9 days and 10 to 8 days, which you could use to finish TFP for R2 as well as work on Luke through the cantina. You'll also need to gear them (excluding OB because, *spoiler* he's used as a sacrifice)
TL;DR
If you can't finish Leia in time through refreshes as well as the 20$ pack and you aren't willing to risk it on the crystal packs, no it's not worth it. If you're willing to drop some money for a character that'll change the game for you, then I would tell you to go for it. I think you'll essentially need to buy each of the character packs for the characters you don't have finished and possibly some crystals if you don't have a few thousand saved up for cantina refrehes.
Edit: Forgot OB is also in the guild store so that may help a little bit as well.
