No. Moore's law is about making things smaller for speedups.

We can't shrink Relativistic Physics like that to lower the energy required to reach 1c (infinite). Of course, it is possible that there is a better standard model of physics which does a better job of explaining things and which does say we can do so.

Another space race or space F1 would definitely make our engineering better and more reliable, but at massive cost and we still won't get FTL.
