Yes. . . when he "died". The regeneration of the Doctor would appear to be some time of apotheosis brought on by the gods, right? Plus a blue box that vanishes would look magical even if it were technological in nature. So Tiber Septims transformation into Talos would just have been the regnerative process and his exodus via the TARDIS would look like an asscension!
