I would say no --

Consciousness and intelligence aren't all that related. There are some very stupid people who are as conscious as any human is.

What's your evidence? I have some anecdotal evidence (based on waking from sleep, and on drinking alcohol) that seems to imply that consciousness and intelligence are quite strongly correlated, but perhaps you know of experiments in which they've been shown to vary separately?
