Not likely. We're talking about the woman who as good as said in an interview several years ago that Snape's redemption would be an important theme in Book 7. Not to mention admitting in another interview around the same time that Eustace Scrubb was one of her favorite Narnia characters because he was a very unlikeable person who turned good. Sound like anyone we know?
She has obviously realized since that she needs to be cagier about these things, and hasn't mentioned it again lately -- but unless she has decided to completely change her original plans for Book 7, it seems that Snape's redemption (whatever form that redemption may actually take) is a sure thing.
