Yes, this is very probable. But not sure.
Also, remember's JKR's words: "Dumbledore thinks it would bring the worst in Snape." Maybe his dark mark? Or maybe something else?
When he taught DADA, he made a class on werewolves, and we all know Lupin is a werewolf. (No, I wont come up with a vampire theory, lol.)
BUT maybe... Since Lupin changes himself into a werewolf, maybe he wanted to say Snape was an bat animagus? Who knows? Since he reminds of a bat, and bats are often associated with... vampires, maybe he was using subtility? (Here we go... lol.)
There's some bats that feed themselves with animal blood, but maybe Snape changes himself into a bat, and instead of sucking blood, he "sucks informations"?
Okay, this is a very stupid theory among those coming out from my wacked brain, but maybe that...?
Anyway, we'll see. ^_^
