With "less capable" scanners, or operators who don't have much experience,
yes...but...

...why? The tonality of color negative film is better than slide film, the
resolution of both, for today's films, is nearly identical, with negative
film having a slight edge, you have better exposure latitude with negative
film...and negative film scans better.
