Unless you're a dragonborn, you cannot kill the dragon's soul, which means you cannot kill the dragon. Does that make sense? It should. Alduin is not dead. He's very much alive, somewhere on Nirn. If he hasn't been resuscitated, he will be by the next era to battle the next Dragonborn, who he may defeat and destroy Nirn. Wait1 You said that a dragonborn can kill a dragon. But Dovahkiin can't? the Dovahkiin can kill a dragon by absorbing its soul. the Dovahkiin did not absorb Alduin's soul.
