I guess in theory yes, if you spend 20 hours working on it or something like that.

But in practicality, no not really.

The difference is that the Fillet is constructed with knowledge of the surrounding surfaces and automatically adapts itself to be smooth to them.


The other thing is the one you show only generates flat polygon pieces, there is not really a true "radius" created there. In a NURBS fillet, each cross-section of the fillet surface is a true exact mathematical arc, not just some lines or polygons arranged to roughly mimic an arc.
