I think not, especially since he told Luffy that they wouldn't meet again.....). If the theory of Kuma being one of Dragon's spies is true, then he probably sent the Straw-Hats to those islands so they wouldn't be involved in the upcoming war. Of course, if that WAS the case, then the plan backfired, seeing as Luffy's currently present in Marineford...
I think it was an orchestrated move too, but how did Kuma (or anyone else for that matter) know that Luffy was a haki user? The only time he had used haki before was on that bull/cow, right?
