Not quite the same, no - I'm sort of alluding to (Lyotard's) incommensurability but not quite in the sense that both dialogues are valid - it's still a dialectical relationship, but it's a negative, deleterious or 'false' one rather than Adorno's dialectic of a sort of impossible becoming.
Send me a PM if you want this made clearer.
