Unfortunately not. The major difference between an honest bot and a regular user is a single text string (the user agent). There's no reason that bots have to be honest though and anyone can modify their user agent. You can go further and use something like Selenium to make your bot appear even more like a regular user including random human-like mouse movements. There are also a plethora of tools to fool captchas now too. It's getting harder by the day to differentiate.
