No...maybe...I guess...not sure? The character's name in casting was "Brother Ray", and he certainly had more characteristics of Septon Meribald than Elder Brother, apart from EB being at a kind of monk commune.
IGN has an interesting take on the character and his connection to the books (specifically the Broken Man theme and Septon Meribald's speech to Podrick and Brienne):
