No. It does not. Even though both have a wide variety of accents and share great percentage in similarities, they do not sound alike. It is easier to have someone comparing Portuguese sonority with Italian or as I've seen before a friend said it sounded like a Russian trying to speak Spanish.
A guy in church said once it sounded more European, not Spanish... Well, Spanish and Portuguese are both European, so I don't know what that friend had in mind when saying that comment...
Try looking up some songs on YouTube. I do not know your personal taste, but I'll leave some options below for you to search on YouTube since I am not sure if Wyzant would allow to post the links directly.
Skank - Mandrake e os Cubanos
Elis Regina - Como Os Nossos Pais
Titãs - Homem Primata
Legião Urbana - Geração Coca-Cola
