It would be possible, but quite unlikely to happen as analysis engines perform calculations at a depth that we humans cannot yet reach, which could give the chess engine some advantage.

The short answer is: No! It can't. Consider that there are many excellent weightlifters, but my little forklift beats them. No one is happy when he lifts tons of stuff. That's computer chess now. Chess is a contest between two players. Human against human, that's the kind I find interesting.
