Nope.
Third party exclusives have been a rarity since last gen, third parties have very little to gain from exclusivity so this transition was natural. In the past it was more frequent as hardware was radically different I mean just compare the pS1 vs N64. During the PS2 era we saw one system dominate so strongly developers really weren't bothered and the hardware difference were still quite big.
When talking 1st party exclusives they are still one of the most crucial differentiators between systems and the people funding them (microsoft, sony and nintendo) have every reason to keep them exclusive. That trade off in software sales is necessary to protect future growth of their platform and all of the revenue that comes with it including third party license fee's.
As kowenecki pointed out, your prediction will come into place when Sony, MS and Nintendo are no longer interested in selling their own hardware, thats something thats about a decade off.
