Nope. Mostly since men do not have (and do not claim to posess) those attributes which make that judgement absurd in the first place. Not that it would matter, since an appeal to hypocrisy tells us only that both parties would be wrong.
Somehow I doubt that this is what you intended to communicate -that god and men are both unjustified in judging each other. Both wrong. Both automatons.
In any case, omniscience precludes -our- free will..but we don't possess omniscience ourselves...so it's not our own knowledge that does that. Does god's knowledge, in your opinion, preclude gods free will as it would our own? Is he, in your estimation, a mindless automaton? Or is he a willful being making righteous judgement upon lesser entities?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
