lore wise, he is dead, there is even a quest to get his HEAD.
According to the wowwiki page he's alive:
"Status Alive (lore)"
"Though many trolls and other members of the Horde have journeyed to the Echo Isles to slay him, and a number have even returned with his head, a few days later the magic always wears off and his "head" is revealed to be nothing more than painted rocks, bunches of coconuts, or the head of one of his followers."
Oh noeez retcons! I love how they make people cry.

Well, if even
Ragnaros can survive
for more than one fight, then Zalazane and Thermaplugg can easily do so.
Well Ragnoros's survival was always speculated on. As an Elemental he doesn't necessarily follow the same pattern of life and death.
In his case, all we did in Molten Core was banish him back to the Firelands, which was a great victory in itself since it renders him unable to affect Azeroth. However if we want him dead pernamently we have to kill him in the Firelands, which is what we are doing in Cataclysm.

Are we? I thought we were fighting him on Azeroth with Thrall and Malfurion, to what, rebanish him?

How is it a retcon?
Its like you read a book and you thought a character died only to find out he didn't.
Not retcon, just plot twist.

I can understand your confusion so I'll explain the situation.
1. While Malfurion is indeed leading the defense against Ragnoros, Thrall's location after the Goblin starting area is unknown. Given the fact that he seemed to be going east during the starting event, I would speculate that Thrall will either be in Deepholme or the Twilight Highlands.
2. Ragnoros isn't crossing through the Firelands portal into Azeroth (or at least won't be on the Azeroth side when we fight him). Essentially we will launch a countattack into the Firelands themselves to confront Ragnoros, using the same portal he is using to assault Hyjal.

lol, read mmo-champ today, apparently we only killed imposters of thermaplug and zalazane. we killed fake verions of them, a robot of thermaplug, and an illusion of zalazane.That's a rather clever twist.
But yeah...poor Iggy Darktusk...
