No. Vercingetorix was a nobleman, son of Celtillus Avernian. He was also older than Cingerix (captured and later executed in his 30's). Vercingetorix was also military commander and skilled tactician.

Also, in Chatper 7, Victus meets captured Vercingetorix and may either blame or sympathize to him, but doesn't recognize him as his own son.

According to Wikipedia: Vercingetorix derives from the Gaulish ver- ("over, superior", cingeto- ("warrior"), and rix ("king"), thus literally either "great warrior king" or "king of great warriors".

So Cingerix means "warrior king", but it's just accidental similarity. There are too many differences: age, birthplace, family, social status and personality.
