Yes... at the beginning of the war... 1942-43. Wiping out Buffalos, Wildcats and Gladiators was not difficult. Army Air corps P-36, P-39 and P40s were also easy prey if you played the Zeros game. Gen Chennault showed the Japanese that the P-40 could be deadly if you changed your tactics. Look at Flying Tiger stats.

By 1944 the attrition of skilled pilots and the lack of pilot training had left the Japanese with almost no skilled pilots. (plus the fact that they thought parachutes were a waste)

Additionally by 1944 the A6M was hopelessly outclassed by Hellcats and Corsairs and many of the new fighters the Japanese were coming out with (and there were some good ones) either had too many bugs (And Mitsubishi refused to honor the warranty... ), were too few in numbers, or were unwanted by Japanese pilots.

By 1945, when the F7F Tigercat came out it was basically a Turkey Shoot. Japanese planes were notoriously easy to knock down if you could hit them. A skilled pilot would have helped them if they had any left.

Oh, and for kill stats, check out the Germans, Eric Hartman (If my memory serves, damn this alzheimers) scored 352 kills on the Russian front. Again, look at the opposition. Highest scoring ace on the Russian front
