I don't believe so. If Snowden receives a pardon, it will be after a few decades of meaningful reform towards better privacy for citizens. I can't see this happening until most of the current political leaders have retired. The current generation will see him as a traitor and embarrassment for years to come.
The worst case scenario is that he will only be pardoned posthumously, ala Alan Turing. I hope that does not turn out to be the case.
