From the latest leaks of cases and whatnot, this seems unlikely. None of the case mockups have cutouts for a fingerprint on the back.

Other rumours include touchID embedded in the glass and/or other forms of biometric authentication (visible+IR cameras and facial detection being the leading contender)

I was always curious if they'd do it through the apple logo on the back instead of a second cutout.
