Weekly sales: yes
Total sales: no, even with PS3 doing a wonderful Xmas season and XB360 an horrible one, there still will be a some million units gap in favour of XB360, most probably PS3 will reach its rival's total sales during Q2 2009.

My guess is by Q2 you mean between April and June, in which case that is highly optimistic indeed... I'd say it is highly unlikely the PS3 will catch up before Q4 2009.

I took into account LBP and other big games releases, a possible price cut in March or April 2009 and that all these things could cause PS3 performance in Japan to better (although according to most, to really conquer the Japanese PS3 needs, besides more games, both price cut and launch of a slim version). Optimistic, but not totally irrealistic. Without a japanese boost and a price cut next Spring, I agree with your prediction, and I'd add the obvious, that in any case XB360 lead will last much longer than WW (this is good, as both MS and Sony could have things to be satisfied at this gen's end, so we won't risk losing important players and healthy competition).
