I doubt that very much. The nature of 'work' will change.
You might be a pretty good painter or sculptor if you put your mind to it.
When work becomes obsolete Art takes its place.
The other alternative is a MASSIVE change in our technology level like space travel.

But if we keep going on the current path at the current pace, work will dry up for many people in the next 100 years and 30 or 40 percent unemployment will be unavoidable. It just doesn't take that many people to put food on the table anymore.
