I think so, they will die, especially now that we have a group of villains. Perhaps one of them will survive, but the majority will still be dead by the end of the arc. Though it's not that simple: Jafar is still alive, because they want to use him again for something, and the writers said either Pan or Zelena will be seen again (not sure if in the present).

I'm sure that this rule "the antagonist dies at the end" will be broken eventually.
