No.
The fact that you can use your RTL dongle as SDR device is because one
can *bypass* most of the digital logic (demodulator, decoder, stream
extractor…) and just get a raw IQ stream.
Decoding DVB-T in software is a really CPU-intense problem, due to
high-rate (in both senses of the word) channel coding, complex
synchronization, and high-order constellations used.

The RTL2832U does not support DVB-T2 as it lacks the required
demodulater hardware. On the RTL2832P, an external demodulator can be
attached via a parallel MPEG TS interface. This is used by dongles
manufactured by Astrometa, which attach a Panasonic MN88472 DVB-T2
demodulator, see [1].
