No, because this doesn’t retrieve images from the docker registry. Bocker can only create an image by copying a subtree of your local filesystem. The primary utility of docker is building and downloading images, and this doesn’t do that at all.
Moreover, bocker doesn’t use cgroups, or any other kind of isolation besides filesystem and network isolation. It’s like systemd-nspawn, but cuter. :)

This could be even cooler if it used overlayfs instead of btrfs. :)
