Yes, Alice never says explicity to be Asuna's rival, but she intends to be. She calls Sinon her rival in love, so she thinks of Asuna in the same way.Also she and Asuna talk about what they have done with Kirito and even there, she shows to see herself as her rival(volume 16). I remember that when Kirito and Asuna are flying after the defeat of POH and before the duel against Vector, they talk about what he has done with Sortiliena Serlut and he reassures her sayng that there isn't nothing between them and Asuna says that in this time he isn't change nothing. So they don't talk about Alice, showing that she has no rilevance as a potential obstacle to their relationship.
