I think so, I hope so and I'm still waiting for these two to interact, pretty please with a cherry on top!
To go into detail, Firestar and Frostpaw are similar in the sense that they both share visions from StarClan (Firestar when he was just a warrior and Frostpaw even after no longer being a medicine cat and her getting revealed to not even be destined as being one at the start of Thunder), these visions often including violence, death or warnings, both also uncovered a conspiracy in their Clans and were not believed by some while others did/do.
As for Frostpaw being set up for leadership, I was wishing for this to happen ever since the first few books of ASC came out but the prologue of Thunder really cemented the idea for me that this could be a likely possibility. Thunderstar literally points out that being a med cat was never her destiny and Riverstar states that she is a powerful messenger and will save her Clan. Of course, this could just mean that she becomes a mediator at the end of ASC but I don't think that's it until I see it happen.
I know people have pointed out her age making her too young for leadership. But Frostpaw's not that young anymore in terms of being apprentice-aged or anything like that in Clan society. She was born in Lost Stars and her littermates got literally pointed out in Shadow to be ready to become warriors soon. Lost Stars took place in Leaf-bare, it's now Leaf-fall of the next year in Thunder (in fact the entire ASC arc so far took place in that one season accoring to the event timeline on the wiki). Meaning that Frostpaw will be 1 year old, sooner rather than later. Still young, of course. But so was Firestar when he became a warrior (he was even under a year old iirc). Granted, he was like 2 years old when he actually became leader though.

Not really. To me, as of right now, Frostpaw hasn't exactly done anything that screams she'd be leadership material. It just feels like she's a medicine cat POV without being a medicine cat. Her character was mostly a camera for RiverClan the first few books, but then she goes on a journey which was somewhat interesting. But I do hope the books that are left she actually has more of an active role. Because if she becomes leader, it just feels like it's by default because all the decent cats in RiverClan are all gone now, instead of her actually having development. I enjoy her as a character, I really do, but she doesn't give me, future leader vibes. Unlike Firestar, who was a "coming of age" character, and was obviously going to be leader because of his destiny.

It would definitely be nice to see an interaction between Firestar and Frostpaw, I think they both went through a lot though I feel like it was worse for Frostpaw. But I don't think ASC has been setting Frostpaw up to be the leader right now, I can definitely see her as leader when she gets older, but for now she's just too young and inexperienced, and it also wouldn't be fair for her to have to take on being leader on top of everything else she's been through, it would be nice to just see her have the chance to settle down and live a normal life as a warrior.

I think Frostpaw is more like Cinderpelt and Puddleshine cats who won’t destined to be medicine cats but ended up medicine cats. She is just way to young for me to even consider being leader maybe at 2 or 3 years old but not at barely 1 with so much trauma. I predict and hope she becomes RiverClan’s medicine cat and I have a feeling the important character introduced in arc 1 and said to be a major focus of arc 9 will be the new leader of RiverClan. The protagonist that reminds me more of Firestar is Nightheart to be honest. I was really hoping both would be on the cover of Star but sadly that was not the case. In conclusion I get more Cinderpelt, Puddleshine, and Shadowsight vibes with Frostpaw than Firestar vibes and see Frostpaw as being a medicine cat who wasn’t originally intended to be a medicine cat. As of right now I don’t see her as leadership material.
