I'm pretty sure that JKR has said something refuting that.  Besides, 
wouldn't it be a bit too cliched if Draco did end up helping Harry?  I 
can't imagine Harry ever needing help from Draco to begin with.  The 
books have established again and again that Harry is the better wizard 
than Draco.

I could see other scenarios though, where Draco does not turn out to 
be as awful as his father, but I do not ever see him turning around 
and being a helluva guy.  Perhaps, like Snape, Draco will have some 
tough choices to make and he will do the right thing but won't be at 
peace with himself for it.  We've already seen that he isn't even 
particularly nice to his friends - at least, I didn't think Draco was 
too respectful towards Crabbe and Goyle in the Polyjuice Potion 
chapter in CoS.  Again, he may or may turn out to be a DE, but for 
Draco to become helpful towards others would take a major personality 
change.  That wouldn't be such great writing on the part of JKR.  I 
hope he *doesn't* help Harry.
