Christopher Eccleston has said he won't do it and well we've lost the first three plus the actor, Richard Hurndall, who also played the first Doctor in the Five Doctors is dead.
Pity actually.

McCoy, McGann, and both Bakers have said at times that they'd do it, but then said at other times that they're too old now. So a multi-Doctor story might end up with just Davison, Tennant, and Smith. And maybe cardboard cutouts of the others--which would still be better than floating, disembodied heads.

On the other hand, all four of those are doing the Big Finish audio books currently. That would probably be doable.
Granted they probably already have something set up and at least scripted. Not sure what the filming status is for the current season.
dps:
Not sure exactly about the filming schedule, but the director hasn't been announced for the season finale, so I'm pretty sure it's not filming yet.
OTOH, I expect that the 50th anniversary stuff won't really kick off until the 8th (34th) season starts next fall. And I would think that if they're doing a big, multi-Doctor story, it won't be just one 45 minute episode, and probably not even just a 2-parter. I'd think likely something along the lines of a 4-parter, unless they do it like "The Five Doctors" and have what amounted to a TV movie instead on a regular-length episode.

Maybe they'll bring Carole Ann Ford as Susan with a "What do you mean you're the last of the Time Lords?!?!"
Of course I just did a lookup and discovered that she's 72. Same problem as above. i thought she was still acting.
MajorBedhead:
So the Christmas episode won't be the 50th special?
I had issues with The Angels Take Manhattan. It wasn't as good as I'd hoped but this season was a definite improvement over last season, which I kind of hated.
If they don't bring Ten back for the 50th anniversary, I will cry. I do love him.
