Word Of God(In this case, Taniguchi or Ichirō Ōkouchi, can't quite remember) says Lelouch is indeed dead. Boukoku no Akito is an R1 sidestory set in the EU, so no chance of anybody we know showing up except possibly Schneizel. Though I'd like to see some of the less prominent Rounds from R2 (Dorothea, Monica, and Nonette in particular) do something in there - would be nice.
