No.. this is one important SC rule. If a statement contains a verb in future, then the tense of the verb inside the statement depends on the tense of the statement.
a statement in present takes "will".
a statement is past takes " would"... (because it states future from the perspective of past - so past form of "will" is used).
He says that he will do it.
He said that he would do it. (does not matter whether the doing happens in future from now)
An extension of the above rule:
a statement in present takes a simple past.
a statement in past takes a past perfect.
The point is one must take all the verbs one step backward in tense.
