Hi,
Assuming the vocals were recorded with a dedicated vocal mic then studios will typically have recordings of the non-vocal instruments without too much vocal bleed in the background (especially if a vocal booth was used). But this doesn't mean they're planning to release the song as an instrumental. However, due to the popularity of DJ'ing and performance/production technology, songs, particularly hip hop and other club hits, are often released as instrumentals specifically for use by DJ's and producers in live performance and production. Hope that's helpful.
Best,
Jake
