It is possible, but it doesn't seem very likely. People want to use the currency that most other people use, and in the United States that's going to be US dollars for the near future.
And that is a good thing: if Bitcoin became the standard currency of the US economy, then its fixed money supply would create a serious risk of the next economic downturn snowballing into a depression.
However, there could be a lot of room for Bitcoin to complement conventional financial networks.
