Not really. Duncan was a good and saintly man, but was poorly equipped to run a country. In particular he is a poor judge of character: as he himself says "There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face." He is completely wrong about the Thane of Cawdor, and has no inkling of what is going on in Macbeth or Lady Macbeth's minds. He chooses the feckless Malcolm as his successor, just because he is his son. Henry V better fits the ideal of a king. He spots conspirers against his throne and without difficulty foils them.
