No. If you shoot with the same lens on both at the same aperture, you\'ll get an identical DOF. Crop is just as the name implies, a crop of a larger image. The content of the cropped portion won\'t change just because you cropped it.
If you take a shot with a 36mm lens and then switch to a 24mm lens, regardless of format, you\'ll get the equivalent of about 2.5 stops more DOF - regardless of which format you are using, if you look at the image at 100%.
My point if we exclude resizing, postprocessing, viewing distance and all that other crap that has nothing to do with the image captured on the sensor then DOF has nothing to do with sensor size but only with focal length, distance to focal plane and lens aperture (and to some extent lens design).
