I've been giving the matter a lot of thought. Cameron likes to kill his characters; he did kill the majority of the case in Avatar I. I think Ney'tiri will die in Avatar II protecting her children. It's the only way to prepare the scene for Avatar III. After all she almost dies in Avatar I. I think it will be at the end, and that there will be another female Na'vi character introduced during the movie, possibly from another race of Na'vi.
What do you think?
EDIT: I'd see the scene something like this
Filritch, Quaritch's brother, holds Ney'tiri as an hostage. Jake has invaded the compound. Filritch is in an AMP suit.
Filritch: You wish to save the Na'vi, Jake. But do you truly understand pain?
Jake: Leave Ney'tiri alone. She has noting to do with you. What kind of coward are you?
Filritch: Me, a coward? She killed my brother, Quartich. Herself. But now it's your turn to lose someone close to you.
Jake (draws bow): I'll never let you do anything.
Filritch: Feel my pain. Feel the pain of death. And then tell me Eywa exists.
Filritch crushes Ney'tiri, slowly. Blood comes out of her mouth as she let a terrible scream out. Jake shoots again, again and again, his arrows always bouncing on the bullet-proof glass. Filritch laughs at Jake, finally let go of Ney'tiri as Jake's rage is growing, and then goes away, deciding to let Jake live to endure the pain of losing the love of his life. Jake initially considers running after him, but Ney'tiri raises her right hand. Jake takes her in his arms.
Jake: But you can't go away. You can't! You're the love of my life. I... was nothing before you!
Ney'tiri: Jake...
Jake: Ney'tiri... The people, they can heal you. Hold on. Please, please hold on!
Ney'tiri: It's too late, Jake. I see Eywa. Jake... Do you remember the first day we met.
Jake(crying): Why... I...
Ney'tiri: I was in fact... Ready to kill you. I had my bow drawn. Then, Eywa gave me a sign. And I had the pleasure... of living two amazing years with you. And give birth to two amazing children. Please... Swear you will take care of them.
Jake: I... swear...
Ney'tiri: Jake Sully, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I... love you.
Ney'tiri passes away. Jake yells "No. No!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" as the camera pans out. Jake is clearly psychotic, not in control of himself. A part of himself dies along with Ney'tiri.
