No PHP is not dead yet and won't be for at least 20 years from now on I believe.
PHP is one of the most mature programming languages despite its flaws in architecture which gets fixed eventually in every update. Some people say that PHP is outdated which I don't believe since there are plenty of great frameworks that they get updates pretty often and are very well-structured such as Laravel or Symfony. PHP is yet one of the fastest programming languages both in terms of development and response time amongst most of the programming languages used nowadays.

TL;DR: No it is not dead.
