Well, no, Moore's law would not be dead only if a plateau was reached. The law is concerned with the rate of increase, so if progress slowed down (or sped up) significantly from doubling every two years, that would be the end of Moore's Law, regardless of whether it is theoretically possible to continue.

Exponential growth would only stop because economic limitations and a barrier of theory.
As of right now it’s nowhere near dead.
