Nope. The company will keep at least one -100, if for no other reason than to allow the antiquated Boeing Training Department to continue to confuse all who train there by mixing models and systems on a random basis, until the point that both instructor as well as student is totally screwed up.

Actually I think they are all gone. Mech in LFT where we had one parked on standby for an important customer told me the last one had gone to CDG for a museum display. Said it had been refurbished like it had just come from the factory.
So with too much time on my hands I ran all the 100 tail numbers on the mx history and only got 3 hits. 136 & 180 just reported no discrepancies and 191 had a history page that included "aircraft retired". Then ran those 3 tail numbers on the FAA a/c registry, 191 & 180 were deregistered. 136FE said, "this a/c registration status may not be suitable for operation.....ergo I believe that they are all history.
At least the US Open has come on and I can do something more productive that includes a cold one.
