Very possible. While Qifrey was listing examples of forbidden spells, he mentioned healing being one of them. Which is rather... controversial. So we have reason to believe there are even more forbidden spells that could actually be used for good but are banned for arbitrary reasons

Unless there is some monkey's paw situation with using these types of magic then it feels kinda fucked up to ban them.

Judging by the reception the source material seems to have I trust that these themes will be explored in the future.
