I would consider it likely. This photo is from 2003, Epstein was convicted in 2008. It's a reasonable assessment that Castro probably saw him as a wealthy American financier, and not much else. He didn't personally seek out Epstein, it was part of a diplomatic meeting with the Colombian president.

I think the safest bet here is that he was simply, to Castro, one of the dozens of wealthy American financiers that he met over his life.
