No.
Well, to be accurate, yes, numbers should be able to "predict" the future. Everything is applied mathmatics if you go deep enough - from the development of life to the movement of the planets, it all boils down to maths. Theoretically, the whole universe should be able to be defined by one equation. Of course, that is assuming that the human race's "destiny" is predetermined, which is another argument all together; but assuming this equation does exist if we knew it we would know the future of the entire universe - maybe even beyond - down to the last sub-atomic particle.
However, numerology is simply looking for patterns, often in completely arbitory man-made devices such as the calendar. Today is 10/10/10 - that doesn't mean something important will happen, it's just how we've decided to measure time. Today could be the 27th day of the 39th month, year 5971. How we've chosen count the days and months and years doesn't change anything, and definitely won't allow us to predict the future.
