Perhaps, but Mosiah 11:1 does say that Noah did not walk in the ways of Zeniff, which at the very least means he was more righteous than Noah. Mosiah 10:11 also implies Zeniff’s people were righteous because they fought the Lamanites with the strength of the Lord. Likewise, Zeniff encourages his people to put their trust in the Lord.

Zeniff never considered himself a religious, righteous guy from the account. The group had even come to blows (and death) over which way to go before finally settling down. His sons may have been all bad. Noah may have been a decent person before he became king. It has been known to happen that power corrupts. :)
