On the whole, no.
I'm basing this on concrete observations rather than any theological aspects of islam. Islam can be a religion of peace, but right now it isn't in practice. Violent islamism wasn't a huge thing until the 70's.

Even by developing country standards, muslim majority countries experience significantly more conflict. Polls also show muslims are more likely to hold violent beliefs, even when they live in non-violent societies.
