Eventually, sure. But no time soon that we know of. Also, an asteroid need not be a planet-killer, though it will surely make a mighty meteor and a big hole (or splash). Lesser meteroids (mostly comet sheddings; not big enough to own the title of "asteroid") hit the Earth all the time. Many think that the geological record shows that we get a major bombardment about every 26 million years. If so, rest easy, because the last one was 13 million years ago, so we're not due for quite a while.

What else can I help you with?
