No. This is wrong in several ways.
- A decent film scanner uses three strip sensors, one for each color 
channel, no Bayer pattern. RGB samples are taken from the same location 
one after the other. No interpolation necessary, you get true RGB pixels.
- A digital camera doesn't scan the real world, it exposes all sensor 
cells in one go. At least at shutter speeds below 1/250s (at higher 
speeds the shutter opens only part of the sensor).
