Well, first of all, Hitler lived from 1889 to 1945; while the enlightenment was during the eighteenth century (1700's). So there was at least a hundred year gap between the two.

If you mean to ask whether he followed the concepts and thoughts of enlightenment philosophers, I'd say no. Enlightenment philosophers urged religious toleration, equality of all under the law, and natural rights. Hitler, on the other hand, persecuted Jews for their religious background, slaughtered anyone who got in his way, and didn't care who anyone was or what rights they might have.
