The quick answer: no
The longer answer: use a gallery instead
The longer longer answer: the fuck’s the difference?
Carousels don’t show the user what all of their options are. Statistically, the first slide receives 84% of the clicks… meaning only 16% go to the stuff users can’t see. Check more stats here.
A gallery by comparison shows image previews of the other options. Steam is a great example of a gallery that shows image previews and works well.
