Yes -- or rather it is designed to identify the issue that floating point causes.
The main idea behind double ledger accounting is that if you add a long list of the same numbers twice (as totally independent operations), then if you have added both lists correctly, you the two independent results will be the same. If you made at least one mistake in adding either or both of the lists, then it is possible, but unlikely that the results will match.
It's easy to think that computers don't make mistakes like humans when adding numbers, however floating point addition for long sequences of numbers is non deterministic (and error prone if you don't sort the numbers first and start with the small ones).
While double ledger systems won't fix this problem, they will identify if you have a problem with your addition (particularly a non-deterministic one like you would find with floating point addition) when you go to reconcile your books and find that the numbers across the various accounts don't add up.
