Doubt it. Like the gimmicky aspects of the first Injustice, the armor gimmick seems pretty much added to differentiate the game from MK, and I think they know it would get stale if they recycled such systems between Injustice and MK.

Is also why you no longer see stage transitions of any kind in MK, as that's Injustice's shtick now, even though it came first in MK like with MK3 like when you uppercutted opponents on certain stages.
