I doubt the Catholic Church will ever do that, so no.

Yes, certainly. Most Catholics already support it. Just give it time for today's young people to enter the priesthood and work their way up through the ranks.
This is just anecdotal, but I get the impression the younger priests are more conservative than the boomers. I think it's more likely that people will stop identifying as Catholic than become priests. Being against church teaching usually isn't a positive indicator of one's desire for the priesthood.

The Church still teaches that contraceptives are sinful. I'm having trouble understanding why y'all think Catholic gay marriages are somehow inevitable.
