Betteridge’s law response to headline: no.

Short answer: not any time soon.

Long answer: Maybe, in the long term. Node is really entrenched in orgs and 99.999% compatibility is probably a must have before they’d would consider switching. Also, don’t underestimate the strength and persistence of Google’s V8 team. Year over year incremental performance improvements may prove to be enough to ensure Node’s dominance for another 10 years.
