Nope.
Brahmos air launched is still 400 km range. The ground and sea launched version s will be upgraded to 500 km.
Raad-2 air launched version is 600 km range , which is 200 km better than Brahmos.
Then the question of platform.
Due to 2.5 ton weight when the mothership SU-30 cannot carry it on one hardpoint unless strengthened.
So far only 2 MKI have been strengthened to carry Brahmos and it will max out at 42 .
With strengthening those 42 MKI will become heavier and will lose range and other characteristics permanently anyway. So there is a trade off involved, hence IAF decision to only sacrifice 42 .
It is far difficult to extend range of a supersonic missile by virtue of physics.
Flying at supersonic speeds need exponentially larger thrust and hence fuel.
Then the question of altitude.
To fly at full range the Russian Oniks missile has to fly high high and then low near the target.
At low low flight path its range is less than half as at lower altitude air is like custard for supersonic crafts and most of the fuel energy is wasted as heat due to air friction.
IAF has an oversupply of MKIs. And 42 is still a very large number. All 42 will be distributed amongst all the operational MKI squadrons.
By the time all 200+ Brahmos-A and 42 MKIs are inducted, Brahmos M will become available.
Subsonic missiles don't face such problems and can fly all the way on low altitude path .
Anything that flies faces this problem, including subsonic missiles. So Raad 2's claim of 600Km drops down to 200Km at sea skimming altitude. Harpoon, Uran, Exocet etc, all face this problem.
Picked this up from wiki for the Norwegian JSM:
JSM 185 km (115 mi; 100 nmi)+ low-low-low profile, 555 km (345 mi; 300 nmi)+ hi-hi-low profile
While a Brahmos will fly at 15000 meters most of the time to attain maximum altitude and be visible to radars from 440 km ateast (distance to horizon calculation) , a Raad or SCALP flying at 100 meters will only be visible to surface radars from less than 40 kilometres.
Both types of missiles can fly at any altitude. The naval variant of Brahmos flies at 3m above the waterline, while land variant does 10m above the surface.
Either case, if you want Raad to give you range, you will need to fly it at high altitude. If you want stealth, you have to sacrifice range for terrain hugging mode. So there's no difference in the end compared to Brahmos.
So a Brahmos flying at Mach 2.5 will cover it's entire 500 km range in 10 minutes, and a Raad flying at Mach 0.8 will cover it's entire 600 km range in 37 minutes.
But Brahmos will be visible much earlier due to altitude and raad will come on radars much later.
The 500Km range Brahmos will have a speed of mach 4.5 to mach 5.

"We will come to hypersound via an increase in range. We have already confirmed 400 kilometres, in order to increase the range to 500, it is needed to increase the speed. Now the missile flies at speeds of 2.8 mach. We will achieve the speed of hypersound through modernization, it is more than 4.5 mach," Maksichev said.
So the flight time for 500Km is just 5 min at max speed, the same as 300Km Brahmos.
At low altitude, the Brahmos' speed can be adjusted to mach 1.2-1.5 in terrain hugging mode in order to increase its range, which is not possible for Raad or SCALP or any rocket-powered missile. During the final terminal phase, the last 50Km, the Brahmos accelerates to its max speed. This is where the ramjet advantage comes from. Even at 3m above the surface of water, the Brahmos can achieve speeds of mach 2.8 or mach 4.5-5 for the last 50Km.
Also, Brahmos can maintain max speed at low altitude from the moment it's fired, at the sacrifice of range. For example, the coastal battery version can cover a distance of 100Km in just 100 seconds at 3m altitude. At 3m, the detection time is just 20 seconds or less, which is nothing.
At 10m altitude, against a radar on a 40m platform as well, you only get 40 seconds to react. So the only way for the Brahmos to be detected is if it's flying at high altitude or an AWACS is watching the ground. And during a Brahmos attack, only 1 Brahmos is flying at high altitude feeding target coordinates to the other 7 at low altitude.
With a mach 4.5 Brahmos, you get just 10 seconds or so. Hell, the reaction time of SAMs themselves is more than that for most types, never mind the entire kill cycle.
Otoh, a subsonic missile, even at 3m altitude, the missile will be detected at least 1.5 min away for the smallest ships and more than 3 min against a 40m mast, which is plenty of time to activate defences and get 2 or even 3 volleys of defensive missiles fired.
With the Brahmos's ability to accelerate or deccelarate depending on the circumstance, it gives you the perfect combination of speed, range and stealth that no other missile can provide.
Even considering Brahmos is detected, Pakistan lacks the defences necessary to kill it anyway, which is a whole different issue, whereas missiles like Raad can be chased down and killed by fighter jets, never mind any ordinary SAM site.
