Not at all. The Russian invasion was poorly planned and even worse executed.
Bad intelligence about the adversary, impossible lengthy but thin supply lines where e.g. fuel-supply trucks needed to be fuelled themselves at least twice before reaching the units that needed it ... a crucial mistake and only that in itself meant catastrophy ... someting entirely different than a cat-ass trophy.

Yes, the Russians even had their parade uniforms with them to march into Kiev.
Then something happened...
Russia simply is not equipped for a land-based war against an adversary willing to fight. The only advantage they have are the numbers, another hundred thousand killed more or less doesn't matter. There're enough where that came from.
