The rise of napoleon was a step towards democracy because his coming to power spread nationalism all across Europe. Nationalism gave people the idea that they could revolt and create their own democratic governments. The french loved Napoleon because, although they did not have democracy, Napoleon made them feel like they played a part in everything he did.

However he replaces this with the personification of autocatic leadership, and then spoils the whole thing by simply replacing one corrupt dynasty, the Bourbons, with his own tawdry relatives. It's a bit of a yes/no answer, but, for me it's about 85% no.
