It's apparently between speculation and truth:

On August 27, 2008, rumors began circulating about a possible remake in the same style as the GameCube remake of the original game, to appear on the Wii. According to the rumors, parts of the game will use the same viewpoint as Resident Evil 4, with new story elements and a new knight-like creature.[44] On November 13, 2008, during a interview with Jun Takeuchi on Eurogamer, Takeuchi talked about how after Resident Evil 5, he would like to remake Resident Evil 2.[45]

If we had the chance to go back and remake Resident Evil 2…you know, I think there is the demand for it. It’s certainly something we would like to consider and think about, but, quite frankly our hands are full with Resident Evil 5 right now, and trying to get that out of the door, so we’re going to have to put all of our focus on Resident Evil 5 for the moment.

I hope it's true. Resident Evil Remake was so awesome I'd love to see how the RE2 remake would look like.
