Eventually, yes. We certainly will do at least one "research based" victory condition. And a win condition based on conquering a super-advanced NPC faction will probably be included. Arioch's a fan of the "galactic council" win condition from MOO2, so I expect you'll see something similar to that as well.
What's a bit unusual about our plans is that some, though not all, of the special victory types are intended to be things that are developed as "quests" in-game. We'll be talking more about this once our plans are closer to finalized
