Not really - the Napoleonic and Hitlerite goals were quite different.

Napoleon was first pals with Tsar Alexander. Only when Napoleon insisted on the embargo of the UK did Alex fall out - and that too purely economically.

Napoleon's invasion was aimed at telling Alex that he was a naughty boy

The Nazi invasion was purely to conquer farming land - that was clearly stated in the Mein Kampf

correspondingly the goals of both invasions was completely different
