No it is not likely. That is a ratio of 10:4 N^14 and N^15 which doesn’t work. It needs a higher amount

In reaction 1 of the Krebs cycle, acetyl‑CoA formed in the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction condenses with the four‑carbon compound to form citrate with the elimination of coenzyme A. Since the product has three carboxyl groups, this pathway is referred to as the cycle. In reaction 2 of the Krebs cycle, this product then undergoes to form isocitrate. The enzyme is called aconitase because the compound cis‑aconitate is the intermediate product of the reaction. Reaction 3 eliminates CO2 to form the five‑carbon dicarboxylic acid α-cetoglutarate. Oxidation also occurs, with electrons transferred from the substrate to COO- . Consequently, this reaction is an oxidative decarboxylation.

In the image, you can see the reaction 2 in Krebs cycle is a two steps reaction with an intermediate cis-aconitase and a product called isocitrate.
