No. She thinks he is too full of the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way. But Macbeth's hesitation comes from caution, not kindness. Lady Macbeth is projecting her own feelings onto Macbeth--she will later say that "if he had not resembled my father as he slept, I'd ha' done it", showing that she is the one who is deterred by the "milk of human kindness". Macbeth, on the other hand, is deterred by his anticipation of the consequences of the murder. It is thoughts, not feelings, that are holding him back.
