Yup, in ways. "A plague on both your houses" was repeated three times, and well, the Friar's letter couldn't be delivered due to an outbreak of plague. So in ways, Mercutio's 'curse' did somehow foreshadow Romeo and Juliet's deaths.
Mercutio's dying curse, "A plague a both your houses!" is not directed at Romeo particularly but at all of the Montagues and the Capulets whose feuding had caused his death. Mercutio conveniently forgets that Tybalt had no interest in fighting with him, and that Mercutio had forced Tybalt into the fight.
