Nah. Madara wanted an extreme coup de tat that would lead to chaos and the uchiha could foreshadow the outcome of the situation
They did not believe in Madara's plans
I am guessing after Madara left, years later Fugaku became leader by proficient skills and reasonable plans to overcome their positions from the leaf village. Fugaku must have learned what Madara tried in the past but in a more positive way that lead the Konoha elders worried...ultimately, they kinda believed he was going to be another Madara that by controlling kyuubi but it was really obito in the end....
