No.
When play-style is completely turned around from turnbased to action you can't even compare these games anymore.
It might become an awesome game but it'll never give you the feeling the old FF's gave. Taking your time to adjust your characters, slowly progressing with an overworld map, thinking about hints npc's gave and where they'd lead you to. I seriously doubt that this one will fulfill those needs.
It looks good but it also looks like just another action game. The only plus side might be that the story will be engaging and the graphics and music are topnotch. But that is not all what makes a ff good.
One of my favorite features of the FF's of old (mid-era) were the FMV's. The contrast of what you look like while playing against those rewarding stunning FMV's that you 'earned' through progress.
FFXV will be succesfull, some might call it the best, as always happens with new iterations but in the long run I doubt it will hold that title.
Don't get me wrong, I hope for it to be 'the best', but imho it is getting to much action oriented. Everything has to be fast paced flashy stuff nowadays which is something I do not share with the majority apparently.
