In what sense? Will we be able to use .NET services? Yes, through an Interop wrapper. Will we be able to use VFP components in .NET environments? Yes, by creating COM components and exporting the typelib to the .NET environment. We can't directly subclass a .NET component without an Interop layer, which we should be able to subclass in a similar fashion to how we subclass ActiveX controls now (haven't done it, based on reading and the Infomercial, and obviously, we won't be able to inter-mix VFP with IL.) VFP COM components will have to be wrapped an brought into .NET for a CLR language to subclass things, and again the CLR language won't be able to be interspersed in a VFP class.
