From the record of the all time goal scorers in the world cup, kylian Mbappe has the chance to top the record in his life time because he has the opportunity to come for more world cups at least two more, he is still young to play but Messi may not return for it but I'm sure he is satisfied with the records to his name.
Note: I hope you know this is not the complete record for the all time scorers of the world cup. This is the list here

The best scorers of the world football championships can be seen in this list:

So, Klose is currently in first place with 16 goals, but Messi with 13 goals and Mbappe with 12 goals are very close to him.
I read somewhere that Messi stated that he will play in another world cup, if Argentina becomes the world champion. So, Messi will most likely have a good chance to become the top scorer of the world football championships in 4 years.
However, given that he is still a very young and talented striker, and that he will almost certainly appear in 2-3 more world championships, my prediction is that in 8 years Mbappe will become the best scorer in the world football championships and that record will stand for a very long time.
