As is appears, no. To quote Weaver,
“The characters in NanQuest, as in RubyQuest, were primarily given their animal identities as a means of visual shorthand, not literal personification. The ears are a way to easily tell the characters apart and give them some personality. Whether or not Ruby is literally a rabbit girl is not significant to the narrative.”

Ah, so it’s kind of like Art Spiegelman’s Maus in a way.

Also, RubyQuest predates his FA account by a long shot.

For me it was the opposite “Oh hey. This pony art looks like someone emulating Weaver, the creator of Ruby Quest, Dive Quest, and a rather fantastical GURPS setting. …Wait it is him. Fuck. I have to be a brony now.”

… and thats when I made the connection to his pony art and the style of Ruby Quest.  
Its similar to when I realized that Miles “Tails” Prower’s name was a pun on miles per hour.
 
But yeah, he has a FurAffinity account, so probably.

Considering he wrote an entire epic story about the escape of an anthropomorphic rabbit and cat from an underwater research facility (with some help from /tg/)…
 

 
Maybe?
