Certainly not, but it would have been natural for the American Indians to desire this. They lacked the means to carry it out of course.

That tracks, elsewhere:

  There's nothing I would rather be
  Than to be an Aborigine
  And watch you take my precious land away
  For nothing gives me greater joy
  Than to watch you fill each girl and boy
  With superficial, existential shit

  Now you may think I'm cheeky
  But I'd be satisfied
  To rebuild your convict ships
  And sail them on the tide
