That's highly unlikely, given the fact that magitek is simply a utilization of cereuleum (processed aether), to compensate for true-blooded Garleans' natural inability for magic. Meaning it's just Garlemald's stand in for magic to allow it to face magically advanced nations/threats (like the Primals) on more equal terms.

Also advanced weaponry (read, gunblades) in the Garlean military is reserved for a privileged few (the officers like Gaius and his Tribuni, and elite troops like centurions) - the regular rank and file grunts who make up the bulk of Garlemald's army are actually people from conquered cities and wield more primitive weapons no different to what Eorzeans already wield like bows and spears.

Besides, you get a Imperial soldier's armour already as part of the storyline, and it's pretty crappy to be honest (I mean, it's level 1 gear!). But I digress...
