It serves the same purpose, allowing for a resurrection through a fitting host, only that Kaguya's version would be far superior (it's alive and actively searches for/prepares the host for its master). BZ backstabbing Madara is pretty much him decompressing Kaguya's backup file in his body after he's finally ready to handle her Chakra. The obvious counter to this interpretation would be that Kaguya technically wasn't dead when that happened. I would say no. All BZ did was pour more chakra into TTJ-Madara to allow Kaguya to manifest herself. Madara already possessed Kaguya's essence in the form of the Juubi and Shinju. This is somewhat similar in the case of a standard jinchuriki. They host a tailed beast and instead of absorbing more chakra to let the beast manifest itself, all of the beast's chakra is released.
