Tammy:

I think it's very probable that Snape could go to DADA. It also makes
for some excellent plot twists. The DADA professor has put Harry into
danger in every book (SS - Quirrel!Mort tried to kill him, COS -
Lockhart tried to erase his memory, POA - Werewolf tried to kill him
(intentionally or unintentionally), GOF - Crouch!Moody enters him into
tournament and tries to have Voldemort kill him, OOTP - Umbridge sends
Dementors after him). If Snape gets the DADA job, he can put Harry
into danger by compromising him to Voldemort somehow. It sets up a
wonderful plot where Snape either is evil or appears to be evil and is
really just spying. Snape gets fired (obviously) and goes off to
Voldemort for either more spying or more real evil stuff in Book 7.
Just because we don't see him at the school doesn't mean we wouldn't
see him or have some huge things revealed about him in the course of
the book. 

Tammy, who still hasn't figured out if she wants Snape to be bad or good.
