This does seem to be happening, except that they'll both be Aligned series since that's the continuity they're sticking with at this time (TF4 notwithstanding).
IDW seems to have a monopoly on mainstream (or as close to it as it can be) modern day Generation 1-based American fiction.

Why not? John Noble voiced him before back in season 1. Why wouldn't they get him this time?

I dunno, I'm really not expecting the Dinobots to appear in animated form, based on what was said at BotCon and SDCC.
At BotCon's IDW panel, someone asked writer Mairghread Scott (who has written for both the Prime cartoon and the Prime-related IDW comics) if we would see the Dinobots in the show. She explained that the Prime creative team really do think that it would be great for the Dinobots to appear in the Prime cartoon, but because they are so limited by CGI restraints, putting the Dinobots into the Prime Beast Hunters comics
instead was their way of putting the Dinobots into the Prime universe.
At SDCC's Prime Beast Hunters panel, the first question asked at the Q&A (by a little girl from the Make-A-Wish Foundation, no less) was also about if we'll see Dinobots in cartoon, to which Mike Vogel of Hasbro Studios explained that, since Transformers: Prime is wrapping up with Predacons Rising, there wasn't any space to put the Dinobots into this show because they have Predacons and wanted to get those in there. But, as they discussed things that are going to happen beyond the future, that's definitely something that they'd all love to do at some point.
