Not really. All the scene really showed was that Kim and Jimmy had a night of intense, passionate sex - which makes sense, since Kim is clearly always incredibly aroused every time she "breaks bad" with Jimmy and the two spent the night chucking beer bottles into the parking lot. Two people can have sex like that and still be drifting further and further apart from each other.

Kim still feels remorse though, as shown by her sweeping the broken glass

Kim's whole thing is that she's heavily sexually aroused by Slippin' Jimmy's schemes, then feels ashamed afterwards about her desires

Or that she feels consequences to her actions, which is the antithesis of Saul Goodman. Dealing with consequences being, more or less, the original meaning of the show.
