No.

As CanAutM3 mentioned, the M3 will only be around until the end of MY2018 in October 2018 (see sticky thread at the top of this forum for information and links). The M4 CS on the other hand is a two year run going until the middle of 2019. Furthermore, the M4 CS uses parts from the GTS that will not work on the M3 such as the hood and some of the interior pieces, particularly those on the doors. Developing those separately would likely drive costs of an M3 CS too high since there would have been no high-MSRP GTS (and DTM edition) equivalent to help subsidize.

Now, could there still be a special edition M3 next year with the 454hp tune developed for the CS and perhaps an exclusive color or two? Maybe, but even that I would only give a very small chance.
