Not necessarily, considering the amount of "changes of heart" Ichigo has had, plus the fact that he is now almost two years older. I hope he gets a different zanpaktou. It would be a breath of fresh air, especially with a new Bankai, which of course will be revealed about a hundred chapters after he gets his Shinigami powers back..
