Here are my thoughts on this...
I do not think Sirius will come back in any shape or form. One of the main reasons why i think this is a quote from Dumbledore near the end of book 4 - i cant remember exactly what chapter, probably veritaserum (sp?) or parting of the ways. Anyway, Harry is telling everybody exactly what happens in the graveyard, and he comes to the part where Cedric's shadow came out of LV's wand. At this point someone says "Diggory came back to life?" Then...Dumbledore says "No spell can re-awaken the dead." I know that isnt exact, but i dont want to go look it up, and im sure you all get the gist of it anyway. Now, if nothing can re-awaken the dead, then Sirius cannot come back to life (he IS dead people). Another reason why i think this is because right after Sirius dies, Lupin says "Theres nothing you can do about it...hes gone." Now...if he's gone, the surely he cant come back, dont you think? Even magic cannot bring someone back to life.
