Highly unlikely. The number of address bits determines the maximum amount of RAM that can be accessed directly. 64 bits comfortably holds today's RAM addresses, and the number of addressable sectors on disk drives. So at the moment there's no pressure to go from 64 to 128 bits.

Still, who's to know the future? Wasn't there a guy once who said '640K of memory ought to be enough for anyone'.
