No.
This is Cirsium wallichii DC. (a highly variable species).

Although there is lot of variation in both C. wallichii (heads less than 4 cm across, inner involucre bracts distinctly dilated) and C. falconeri (heads 6-8 cm across, inner involucre bracrs spiny tipped) the two diagnostic characters can't be ignored. To me it looks C. falconeri only.
