No. Apomixis offspring are genetically identical to their parents, whereas selfed offspring are genetically different from their parents as long as their parents are not totally inbred. To go through selfing you still have to make gametes, each of which contains a sub-sample of the parents genome, so selfed offspring become more inbred than their parents.
