You'll have to convert the dates to epoch form to do that.

... | eval epoch = strptime('Plan Start Time', "%b %d, %H:%M %p")
| where (epoch >= relative_time(now(), "@d") AND epoch < relative_time(now(), "+1d@d")

This run-anywhere query works with your original output.

| makeresults 
| eval PST=
"May 01, 08:00 PM|
May 03 10:00 PM|
Apr 30 07:00 AM" 
| eval PST=split(PST, "|") 
| mvexpand PST 
`comment("Above is just set-up.")`
| eval epoch = strptime(PST, "%b %d, %H:%M %p") 
| where (epoch >= relative_time(now(), "@d") AND epoch < relative_time(now(), "+1d@d"))
| rename PST as "Plan Start Time"
| table "Plan Start Time"
