Currently? Of course not. But when the idea of storing money on your computer (e.g. in a file) becomes more widespread, then the answer would be yes. Or at the very least it would be equally secure.
It's not that hard to provide people with a secure environment, as long as that environment is designed with with security in mind. A non-jailbroken smartphone is probably good enough, though a dedicated device might be better. And you can use live boots.
I can see a future where we use such (or similar) things to do money transfers.
