No, that wouldnt really make sense. What Would make sense though is if Altair found a way to stay alive for a really long time using the Apple and Ezio gets to meet him before he finally dies. I know this is reading into it a bit too much but the codex ends when Altair was basically on his last legs. He says that he is about to die and will take "one more look" into the Apple. Its possible he found a way to stay alive for a ridiculously long time. The only problem with that theory though is the question of "what has he been doing all this time?"
