Entirely possible. Even a week ago, I'd have said they wouldn't scrap the A380s early - and especially not until they'd seen how the crisis plays out. But, it's increasingly hard to see how demand recovers enough on the routes they'd want to use them on (Asia) for it to make much sense.

I'd still hope that they feel it'd be premature to retire any of the A380s.
