Most likely not. There isn't a disc for PC either, so them releasing it on disc for the Xbox is very slim. It's in the arcade, and I don't think I've ever seen an arcade game for Xbox on a disc.

You don't need a credit card to buy MS points. As stated above you can get them at most Retailers like Wal-mart, Target, CVS etc. They may also come out with a 'DLC' Card which has a code for the game instead of buying MS points. Though Personally I would welcome a Disk version ( and actually they do have Disk versions of some arcade games but its usually a couple of games on one disk) either way the game doesn't take up too much space currently and i don't see the updates making it much bigger. The download is only about 130Mb i believe though i don't have the full game yet so it may be bigger.

When I went to gamestop to buy a points card with my brother, the clerk asked what we were getting with the cards. Since I told him minecraft, he told me that they sold codes for it too. If anything just go to gamestop.
Minecraft has been selling like absolute gangbusters on the Xbox 360. It’s brought in millions for Microsoft, 4J Studios and Mojang.
In it’s current form, though, it’s only available as a digital download. However, that’s going to change at the end of April as Minecraft is getting a physical retail edition.
The news comes by way of PlayXBLA, the official Xbox LIVE Arcade blog. Here’s the skinny on what the retail version is:
This version of “Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition” will contain all the same features and content included in the current version, as well as the new additions coming soon in the ninth title update to the game.
The post goes on to indicate that the retail version will sell for $19.99, and it will be available in the US on April 30th, 2013.
Whether you’re a collector or you’ve never connected your Xbox 360 to the internet (those people exist, I promise), this version of Minecraft seems pretty neat.
