Well the first question is why would they? By the time the Allies are in Western Europe after D-Day much of Eastern Europe is in Soviet hands or soon will be and the last thing they want is the USSR dialling back its efforts and allowing the Nazis to divert troops west.

They'd need to go past Berlin to liberate eastern europe( a lot more realistic than through the south). By the time they reach Berlin the German army has either collapsed giving the Soviet free space or the fighting is so fierce the Wallies can't advance further and need help. Probably the latter, realistically before they reach Berlin.

With no lend lease, the USSR just plain collapse. And otherwise, or not actually, it requires Germany flipping to the US/UK - so maybe if Stalin has way worse PR, and the Allies have some German they trust or like (to coup Hitler/the nazis, obvi).
The only way you get something like that is, Hitler kicks it (no barbarossa) the Soviets attack in 43 or so, and the Allies decides that dealing with - unsure who could fit this bill - beats letting Stalin overrun all of Europe.
 
If you can end the war in a situation where the Polish home army and the Slovak army aren't crushed and the Allies are in a position to help it's much different than OTL, it's not too much of a POD to get the Allies into Prague and Berlin, maybe Budapest.
