No he doesn't but right after that he says his line about death being
like going to bed after being the next great adventure to the
well-prepared mind (or something, don't have my book).  So if the
Flamels pop up four years later it would not be very fictionally
satisfying at all.  

And it doesn't take four years+ to "set your affairs in order". 
Couple of months, max.  The Flamels are gone.
