I don't think it'll ever be 100% like UO again, obviously, but if it was like UO was with UO T2A (Renaissance?), I think it'd work.

Problem is, it'd be "niche" compared to WoW.
Anything is "niche" compared to WOW if you are talking about subscription numbers. If you are talking about gameplay then why would it have to be a "niche" game?If they created an updated version of UO and slapped a 2 on it the game would appeal to a lot of players I would think. Especially if they had the same open ended skill system that the original UO has. Crafters, adventurers and roleplayers would flock to that sort of game.

In the 8+ years that UO has been out no other developer has matched the level of freedom that Ultima Online has given to it's players.

Edit: If you meant it was a "niche" game because of the open PvP that UO had at launch, then why not just have PvE and PvP servers just like any other MMO?
