Hi,

I think the answer to that is yes and no.

a)No, because moving to snaps and xenial base will require newer kernels.

b)Yes, because even nexus 4 still not getting snap-based system, it will 
be supported for another limited period of time

This is what I've understood from a post on google plus

cheers
