I really doubt it.

There is no indication whatsoever of Cinder having any second thoughts about anything she's done. On the contrary, she relishes in it. She also doesn't have even a single shade of sympathetic characterization in the whole show and she killed one of the show's most popular characters in cold-blood. Her only known motivation is to be feared and powerful. She hasn't shown the willingness to do anything that doesn't further herself.

There isn't a single shadow of a hint of a shred of a kernel of what could possibly be a redemption arc in Cinder's characterization.

If any character gets a redemption arc, it'll be Emerald, I guarantee. She's done plenty of evil stuff, but she has shown remorse at the consequences of her actions, she has at least pretended to be friends with the main characters (which might turn out to be more than a facçade) and she even has a tragic and sympathetic backstory that could be used as an excuse for doing evil. They could even twist her fanatical devotion to Cinder as her wish to be loved or something sappy like that.
