Not exactly, especially regarding concurrency. You maybe interested by this discussion http://markmail.org/thread/3iqhk47m6oriopr3

To create specific composite documents based on "primitive" content types

Hi,

the ofbiz cms functionality is limited comparing to specialized document 
management systems. Currently there are no repository functions like check 
in or check out or versioning. If you are looking for a comfortable DMS 
perhaps you should evaluate Alfresco http://www.alfresco.com/

Its also possible to use the alfresco file repository as an ofbiz file 
store (eg. for images or downloads)
