Quite possible. However, I don't think Orochimaru is still intent on destroying Konoha. His research has proven valuable in the past, there's enough civility to the point where he's allowed to live independently, albeit under constant surveillance, and I doubt he'll try anything now that Naruto and Sasuke are strong enough to basically oneshot him.
