Yes. Absolutely.
A properly set up and configured sim rig and a proper simulator title can get you really, really close to the real thing. Naturally, you'll be missing the G forces. A motion sim and seat belt tensioners can help bridge the gap a little in that regard but there's really no substitute. They just add some immersion.
An 80/20 aluminum cockpit, actual seat, quality pedals and wheel, a PC and software like Assetto Corsa will definitely scratch that itch. Honestly, the more money you throw at it, the more realistic it becomes.
