Basicly yes. The difference is simscan is much more efficent with less features. If you just need to do virus scanning, spamassassin processing or attachment blocking, switch to simscan. One heavily loaded site reported a load of about 20 with qmail-scanner and a load of less than 1 after switching to simscan. Probably the main reason for the lower load is qmail-scanner is written in perl and simscan is written in C.
