Unfortunately, not.
Net carbs, when dealing with fiber is one thing - usually relating to whole, natural foods. "Net carbs" when dealing with bars and other frankenfoods refers mostly to glycerine and sugar alcohols. Something that has been discussed ad nauseum on the boards. Try a search for "malitol" or 'sugar alcohols' and have a look under 'Low carb tips' for an article on Sugar Alcohols (atop every page in orange highlight).
