Hi Alison Howes , nothing out of the box to do this but here are some options:
- Create a new choice column at as a site column and manually maintain the choice options centrally then use this site column on the list in the Project Sites

Have a Power Automate flow run that will keep the central list updated with the new Projects added to Project Online. Then on the Project Sites, have a new list that has a look up column to the central "Projects" list.
There are more options but these are the simpler ones I can think of currently.

Thanks
