You will still need a \texttt{.eps} image file; there is no \texttt{pdffrag} package that works for \texttt{.pdf} files.
If you want to use the \texttt{[process=all]} option for \texttt{pstool}, add a custom \texttt{latexmkrc} file that contains this line:
\begin{verbatim}
$hash_calc_ignore_pattern{'pdf'} = '^/(CreationDate|ModDate|ID) ';
\end{verbatim}
to avoid infinite compiling leading to a timeout on Overleaf.
Alternatively, you may want to work out all the \verb|\psfrag| commands in a separate project with \verb|\usepackage{psfrag}| and the LaTeX+dvipdf engine (see \url{https://www.overleaf.com/latex/examples/psfrag-example/tggxhgzwrzhn}), and once you've finalised that, copy the code into your main project (using pdflatex) and replace with \verb|\usepackage{pstool}| and \verb|\psfragfig| instead.
