No. The math doesn't work out, actually. It gets you close to 1 Tritium bred per fusion created, but it assumes 100% of neutrons go to breeding and it assumes no losses due to hydrogen diffusion into metals, pump losses, etc.

“The results show that even with 6Li 50%, the condition of tritium self-sufficiency is met. Considering the high cost of Li enrichment, the desired results can be achieved at a lower percentage.”

Studies show 1.14 TBR for blanket alone.
