Not "likely" but...: "Liikely" seems too strong a word but we don't know what's possible or what limits may be found. While stem cell therapy and other advances hold great promise, current technology is a long way off from allowing us to live to 1000, but in 1930 not many thought we would land on the moon in 1969. But it is wise to continue to take good care of yourself to maximize both quantity and quality of life.

1000?: If you meant 100, most depends on genetics and luck and trying to live a healthy lifestyle. Technology advances are mostly for treating diseases, not for preventative care, so eat right, exercise, be safe and enjoy your life.
