No, in actuality it's a sound-alike. LucasArts hired actor/director/comedian Matt Sloan of YouTube's: "Chad Vader - Day Shift Manager" series. He has also voiced Darth Vader for other video games: Star Wars - Empire at War: Forces of Corruption & Soulcalibur IV.
In the book "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed", which was published around the same time the video game was released, Senator Bail Organa reveals that Starkiller's real name is Galen Marek.
This was the original intent, since it was co-conceived by George Lucas, making it G-Level canon. However, with the purchase of the Star Wars property by Disney, this is no longer the case. Since then, the Star Wars canon has been reshuffled with the addition of Star Wars: Rebels (2014) and Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015). Finally, the events of The Force Unleashed were directly retconned by the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016): in Force, senator Bail Organa knows of the existence of the Death Star because he was briefly imprisoned on it; this clearly has not happened in Rogue One, since he knows nothing of it. So Force Unleashed is now in the Star Wars Legends.
