In terms of control and game mechanics, yes.
Tactically, no. Not without cheating. Humans can learn and adapt in a way that AI really can't, and air combat is an extremely difficult problem to solve.
You could make an AI that would be able to reliably hit deflection shots at extremely long ranges and fly with 100% control coordination and optimal throttle/prop pitch use etc. There are some games at which humans will always excel.
