The fact that Liu Kang, Kitana, and Kung Lao are depicted as playable characters in their living forms doesn't necessarily have to hint at anything. Liu Kang's alternate outfit in Mortal Kombat: Deception and Mortal Kombat: Armageddon depicted him as being alive as a result of his soul returning to his body in his non-canon ending of Deception.
