In some respects yes because they had more training and better fighter aircraft with more advanced machine guns and far superior acrobatic capabilities and manouvers and the spitfire could easily out manouvre any Germa aircraft with a manouvre that if the Germans attempted they would lose gravitational lift and plummet to the ground.
But in some respects no because the Germans had far more aircraft with many pilots compared to the RAF. The RAF were highly outnumbered as their werent many pilots at all. It wasnt much of an air force and so it truly shows how it all comes down to what you put into it and that was obviously a lot of effort.
That's why the saying goes "Never was so much owed by so many, to so few".
Many being the population of England and few being the British RAF Pilots
