I doubt that there will be a grown up Solid Snake in TPP too. What I just think would be as cool as the idea of the switching camera to Solid Snake for a battle between Snake and BB would be that battle, but playing it as BB. In that case Solid Snake would be the "enemy". We fight him to a specific point and the fail will be shown in one of Kojimas awesome cutscenes.

But I don't see this actually happening. I don't even think the events of TPP will pass the year of 1984. And we all saw Eli as a child in that year. And yes, I know there is a hugh threat in here discussing that and I don't want to start something, but I think too that Eli is Liquid. Thats why I dont think that we will have one or two missions that will remake Metal Gear from 1987.

But if we do see a young Liquid, whether it's Eli or not, then I hope to see a young Solid as well. I really love to get some Les Enfants Terrible storytelling out of that event. And not in terms of telling a story about the past like Liquid did in MGS1 or Eva in MGS4. But I am getting off topic.
