It seems that x86 hardware will be part of Google’s new laptop platform, although Intel doesn’t specify what processors it’ll be using:

We’re thrilled to partner with @Google on something we’ve been building with them - Googlebook. Premium, powerful devices designed for Intelligence. We can’t wait to get it into your hands this fall.

Googlebook is also expected to support ARM-based chipsets from other vendors, so perhaps the partnership isn’t exclusive.
