I don't think that's necessary. From what we've heard it sounds like ME3 takes place only a couple of months after ME3.

I expect Thane to die as well though (at least, I hope). There is enormous dramatic potential for the end of a Thane romance there, it would be a huge shame for them to throw that out the window just for fanservice.
