Probably not. I mean if you would take all people really interested in vanilla, i could see that having healthy playerbase, perhaps not big, but good enough.
TBH I think they really crewed the server structure in classic and TBCc, Its been not even full 2 months of TBCc release and already I have trouble finding people for lvling/not hc content, and thats on big servers.
The only thing that would attract at least part of the playerbase is a fresh server. There is no incentive whatsoever to play on old servers stuck in P6.
The release of TBC showed that Blizzard Cant/wont develop Vanilla hence there is no reason to play it. Maybe its for the better.
Them making it so you have to pay to copy your character (so you can keep your char in vanilla, and another in tbc) basically killed it. Id def log into vanilla from time to time to play if I still had it. But it wasn't worth the money to copy it and since I'd rather play where the population is, I transferred it to tbc.
It seems like there are more than 1-2 but before they went offline, they were all "low" population.

It's basically multiple servers sharing the same world, your character still belongs to it's server, but when entering the game it goes to the host server, while your server's world is empty without anyone being able to get into (if they even keep the active anymore).
Instead of taking the character database of a server and slapping on over another server and then flagging duplicate characters for renaming.
It almost seems like they should just merge all the east coast together and all the west coast together.
That or there just isn't enough people left over who like vanilla. However, only time will tell as TBCC hasn't been out long.
