Assuming that Soap can survive getting stabbed in the chest (although it's unknown if any vital organs were hit) and according to Call of Duty logic, there is a possibility, but that's only if Shepherd were to receive some form of medical care, as Soap did in the beginning of MW3. The pre-order poster that came with MW3 (the TIME Magazine picture) also had the words, "General Shepherd Laid to Rest in Arlington," so he's pretty much dead, right?
