"I'm afraid I have to strongly disagree."
First of all, it is made plain that Susan is "no longer a friend of Narnia", thus, if she DID discover who Aslan is, she only became an enemy, which is highly improbable."
The last part of your sentence is correct. However, the first part is not. It was Peter, who described his sister as "no longer a friend of Narnia." The only reason he said this, is because of King Tirian asked where she was, when Peter described himself, & the remaining group as "The 7 Friends of Narnia," & because of the frustration inwhich he & they were all experiencing in trying to get Susan to join them in their projects concerning Narnia.
The fact that she was not killed in the train wreck, & was left in the world, gave Susan plenty of chance to repent of her falling away. CS Lewis himself, said that the reason he had decided to leave Susan out of the Last Battle, was because "Susan's story had not finished yet," meaning that she could one day regain her faith, & ultimately be restored as the 8'Th Friend of Narnia.
