I think the Dursleys might well be a target of the DEs in the future 
but I think there would have to be some sort of redemption on their 
parts first in order for the deaths to phase Harry.  At this point, 
Harry could care less about the protection that being with the 
Dursleys provides and he would not feel much of a loss but instead 
would probably feel grateful if even guiltily so.  If there is some 
sort of redemption, say Petunia telling him some of his family 
history, then the effect of their murders upon Harry would be much 
greater.
