Nope, not quite.  The real quote is:

JK: No, I've never been tempted to kill him off before the end of Book 
7 because I've always planned seven books; that's where I want to - I 
want to finish on seven books. 

TEMPTED

Big difference between tempted and intended.

She also goes on to say:

JK: But I can completely understand the mentality of an author who 
thinks I'm going to kill him off because then there can be no non-
author-written sequels, so they call it. 

". . .THINKS I'm going to kill him off."
