The short answer is No.

You can measure certain things, that you are interested in, but there
is always the problem (as someone mentioned) that once the benchmark
is known the developers optimize for the benchmark instead of real
life.

The other issue is the meaning of any given measurement.  Why do you
want to measure it?  What is your goal?

For something as broad as an OS, just use it.  If you can't see the
difference, then it doesn't matter.
