1. Well, he's dead in Arda, but if the men go to a somekind of Heaven, and will there live some other life, then maybe Turin's anger or his fate(or both) will pull him back to Arda to finally slay Melkor. After all, "and the SPIRIT of Turin shall be beside him". If he would be only a spirit, then maybe again his fate or his anger would bound Turin to Arda. Like those ghosts who broke their Oath to Isildur.

2. Maybe he slays Melkor with broken Gurthang, like Isildur cut Sauron's finger? Or maybe it just comes reforged with Turin.

And actually I've got my own question, too:
3: How can Melkor be killed?
