Yes, but I think right now the estimate range should be 96-128.
I personally expect 112 and 128 to be more likely.
But more importantly, these are all just speculative CGIs anyway. There is no need to write about them with any sort of speculation like they are representative of the real thing beyond what we can confirm based on visual identification of the under-construction hull so far.
You counted the missile silos on the CGI
Are the 4 type 726 new built?
I noticed that right away as well. I have to say I would actually be shocked if this ship is not packing 128 cells, with the aft VLS bank turned 90 degrees sideways compared to the forward bank.
You don't actually have to count the cells individually. You can tell right away that the 2x4 grid forward and 2x3 grid aft will result in only 112 cells.

Actually quite easy to count them (3 + 4 rows) each with 16 VLS = 112 VLSs
