Highly unlikely in our lifetime. Altair is still on the main sequence and probably has a few billion years left on it. Even when it comes to the end of the main sequence, it may not have enough mass to become a supernova.

It is difficult to predict exactly when Altair will become a supernova, as the lifetime of a star like Altair can vary. However, based on current scientific understanding, Altair is not massive enough to end its life in a supernova event.
