She may well come back; it was confirmed in the synopsis that she's in a comatose state.

However, Haruo had those dust secretions put on his body by Miana - which prevented the Nanometal (which the twins said was 'Poison') from assimilating him.

My guess is Yuko will be taken back to the Houtua village after Haruo and the rest of the team reunite and the Houtua will try to heal her - which will either work fully and bring her back, or will only work long enough for her to say goodbye to Haruo and give him some words of encouragement before she dies. Either way, I'm interested to see what they do.
