Maybe.
However, it is a female (antennomere VI black; observe the last ventrite); antennal characters cannot be used.

I think it is more probable that it is A. ossea. I will post photos of both species.
The 3rd antennal segment of A. gigantea is somewhat longer, although you can't determine much information from the photograph of the live specimen except that the elytra is very pale (light coloration).

Thanks, Xavier, Francesco.

Could it be Aegosoma ossea?

It should be Aegosoma giganteum Lansberge, 1884.
Cf. here.

I think it belongs to Prioninae subfamily.
