No, cancels out insinuates nothing is left of the soul. The soul is destroyed. The soul doesn't need to be destroyed for that to happen. For all we know, the old god's soul is just attracted to the warden's body and due to their soul being present along with the taint, cannot complete the transfer and simply goes away like any other soul.
There's no reason a god's soul would be cancelled out by a much weaker mortal's. Notice Corypheus' is not and he even forces himself on grey wardens.
In Origins the warden who falls from the sky (sorry, tired, can't recall name) after injuring the archdemon, says something to the effect that the Warden's soul and the Archdemon's soul cancel one another out, annihilate each other completely. Now, perhaps he misunderstood or got it wrong, but I know he says something to that end. It's during the scene in Redcliffe Castle where he's explaining the facts of life and death to Alistair and the Warden. I remember it because it's what bothered me the most. I didn't mind dying for the cause, but to be completely obliterated? Didn't like that.
