Yes, of course, although it would nearly be insulting to say that the TheViper inherits the same genius traits as Magnus Carlsen, considering he is on top of one of the most played and highest intellectually regarded games in the world, with a professional basis consisting of a team of coaches and nearly 24/7 practice. While an impressive tactician, some of the things Carlsen do, like playing 40 games simultaneously blindfolded, having to remember every chess piece on each board, is a completely different league of genius. But they are nonetheless masters of each their playing fields, and both from the very loosely inhabited nation of Norway where such things should be impossible and unheard off.
