It's unlikely. RHEL7/CentOS7 is in maintenance support mode, so no
new major feature changes are expected. Only major security/bug fixes
are expected to be introduced.
See this chart for more details:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux#Product_life_cycle
The version in CentOS 7 isn't simply the version from OpenSSH, many
features and securify fixes have been backported in the past, so if
there's something in particular you are looking for, please mention
it.
