Yes. Cassius was more cynical but also more realistic. Brutus had very high standards of morality which did not take into consideration the danger of those who were immoral. For example, Cassius presses to have Antony killed with Caesar, and Brutus says no, he doesn't want to kill more people than are needed and that he is sure that Antony will pose no problem after Caesar is dead. Cassius' estimation of Antony is correct, and if Brutus had listened to him they wouldn't have been lying around Philippi with swords in their chests.
Of course, if Brutus understood people better he would have known that the Republic was never going to be re-established and there was no purpose in killing Caesar in the first place, except to replace him with another Caesar.
