In general - no. The Pi 2 and Pi 3 have identical VPU/GPU hardware, but the Pi 3 default clock rate for the GPU is bumped up. For the highest quality 1080i "MMAL Advanced" deinterlacing a Pi 3 needs no additional overclock, whereas the Pi 2 does need a mild overclock (or did). If you do this the results are the same. (The original Pi can only do "MMAL Advanced" at SD, and drops to "MMAL Bob" at HD)
The Pi 3 has a faster CPU though, so HEVC 1080p software decoding will cope with more content on the Pi 3 than the Pi 2 can.
