  The Trek BBS: NX-Class Starship in Star Trek IV:TVH
Sure, our heroes may name-drop "NX class" and "the NX program" every now and then, but today's sailors speak of "688 class" or "DD(X) program" in quite analogous a manner, in a navy that firmly believes in naming the classes after the first ship christened.
And the UESF of the 2150s does use class names deriving from the lead ship of the class, at least in the case of Neptune class and possibly Triton class as well, whereas there is zero evidence that they would have a custom of "lettercode classes" extending beyond the references to NX class.
Declaring that an NX class starship in the 22nd century is irreconcilable with NX's meaning as a registry prefix in the 23rd and 24th centuries is the sort of homogenizing little-universe thinking that would have us passing off all Vulcans having the same haircut as a triumph of continuity.

 Nebula class starship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nebula class design lineage is related to the contemporary Galaxy class, having a similar engineering hull, a similar primary hull and nacelles.
The Nebula class differs in the direct integration of the saucer section with the secondary hull, the downward curve of the engine pylons, the attachment of those connections farther fore and higher up on the secondary hull, and the short upward-running pylon supporting a changeable module at the aft end of the engineering hull.
The Nebula class was probably first put into service during the 2350s in response to the growing tensions with the Cardassians as well as a replacement for older Federation starship designs.
