No, the CKEditor 3.x line will not get any more updates apart from security fixes (if these occur).
CKEditor 4 is the direct successor of CKEditor 3 and we try to preserve backward compatibility whenever possible, so an upgrade should be hassle-free. See here for API changes between 3.x and 4.x.
Is it possible to automatically run v.4 or 3 depending on browser compability?
I could probably switch the source references with server code depending on browser version but would rather use the compability logic in the ckeditor api.
Nope, it won't be possible using env.js. When CKEDITOR.env is available is already too late, because some CKEditor source was already loaded. This logic has to be handled by external browser sniffing (backend or frontend based).
