Only NOW, because he is risen.

Acts 2:27
For You will not leave my soul in Hades,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.

Psalm 16:10
For You will not leave my soul in Sheol,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.

Acts 2:31
he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh see corruption.

Note that the above verse is in past tense. It is not that His resurrected flesh will not see corruption, although that is also true, it is that His mortal flesh did not see corruption.

1 Peter 1:18-19
knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.

Note that this is also past tense. It is not about being redeemed presently but having been redeemed when His blood was shed on the cross. This blood, flowing through the veins of His mortal body, NEVER was corrupted. It is incorruptible.

So you are mistaken according to scripture.
