No it isn't Base Hashirama made it clear in their VoTE fight that he would no longer hold back and he would end the fight and Madara, then he went into Sage Mode showing how serious and ready to kill he was. He never did that before, even going as far as to try and convince Madara to a truce while he was laying on the ground depleted and defeated. Also, to say Hashirama even had Sage Mode at his last battle with Madara before his VoTE Battle with Madara is speculation alone. Sage Mode is taught and trained in regardless. So it is more likely that Hashirama did not have it, hence Madara bringing Kurama to the battle to even the odds, not knowing that Hashirama also had his own trump card in the form of Sage Mode. Ya feel meh?
