Unless they can make the hardware better, no. If DX12 makes a difference on the xbox one, opengl will make a difference on the ps4. There's simply no way that I can see it happening. The PS4 is stronger in every way. The xbox one can't catch up.

PS4 doesn't use OpenGL.

What DirectX 12 will do for PC is already a reality in consoles since... well ever... the consoles APIs are already low/close to metal... that's one of the advantage to be a fixed hardware. The gain with DirectX 12 on Xbone will be way lower than PC because the DirectX on Xbone is already have low level access to the GPU... it is already something close to metal.

DirectX 12 will help with development/ports between Xbone and PC.
