No, its very different from the anthropic principle. The anthropic priciple proposed that all of the states of a quantum superposition (and hence all worlds resulting) are equally real. This hypothesis proposes that quantum superpositions, evolve themselves into reality through peptides, then enzymes, and ultimately, life.
It dismisses the anthropic principle in favour of the decoherence principle. Once a quantum superposition is "measured", by its environment, it becomes decoherent and hence "real". The way the superposition IS measured, is when it is in the form of a peptide/enzyme.
