V unlikely in my opinion. Without US military support, the autocratic Saudi monarchy would be toppled tomorrow by a huge groundswell of popuar opinion. The danger is that the working class and peasants would probably be lead by a hostile and violent brand of Islamic extremist in this revolution. The Saudi govt has everything to lose by attacking America (losing one of their only int'l friends & nothing to gain - it has destabilised the situation and put them in graver danger than ever)
