Not exactly.
Cashu or Fedimint use ecash as a money warehouse receipt redeemable at par for sats.
In Wabisabi coinjoin the ecash is used as anonymous access rights to the output side of the coinjoin transaction coordination.
The token is not "as good as" sats and it cannot be "redeemed" for sats. Instead it can be redeemed for the right to do an api call in the output registration phase.
A coinjoin coordination can fail frequently and for many reasons. If only one input fails to sign, the transaction is invalid, and even if all sign, it can still get double spent before confirmation.
The merchant doesn't consider himself paid when he receives the wabisabi credential, but only when the final transaction with his output is in the blockchain.
So far nobody has implemented this, but both BTCPay and Wasabi will have this functionality soonish in two weeks.
