No, but the 3rd Raikage is not a normal person. The reason why gentle fist is so deadly is because no matter how strong you are physically, you just can't resist it unlike regular taijutsu because one can not train their internal organs like they can their external body. The 3rd Raikage is different because his internal organs aren't soft and easy to damage or else Shukaku would have sent the Hyuga clan to fight against him as they'd be a perfect counter to his abilities but face it, he is one of the only people who can tank gentle fist.Actually, gentle fist can hurt anyone, even the third raikage, but he's just too fast for them to keep up with. You just cant physically tank gentle fist because of the way they attack, which is right through the skin and into the organs unlike rasenshuriken which does it as well, but not like the gentle fist because it has to force its way through the lightning armor and his skin to do damage(not that its hard at all to do so) but doesn't do enough damage to keep him down.
Plus a normal rotation against him would be practically useless. Only Hiashi's version could protect him, and even then he couldnt keep it up forever.
The 3rd Raikage isn't fast enough for either Hyuga to get blitzed, they can keep up with him just fine. Still they won't land a hit on him, or at least, won't land enough hits against him to nullify lightning armour.
