No.
Any application of rules suggest predictability and you always have problems with silly little things like people.
What if someone does something that can't be predicted within the limitations of your rules.
What if you have a major event, such as, for example an economic recession brought on by the behaviour of a limited number of idiots in banks.
What if you have an unpredictable cosmic event such as a supernova burst in your Galactic Empire.
Asimov's phychohistory might be accepted as a fictional device if you assume it lays down general pattern-based rules for a very large mass environment - tens of thousands of worlds over thousands of years of history. In that case you may have a limited success in some forms of prediction.
Until chaos throws a spanner in the works.
Again.
