Not necessarily. Both were rank 2 at 19 and received 2 ranks promotion. Both were as.spec. class at 22 and participated in large operation - auction raid for Suzuya and one against Clowns in 4th ward for Arima. It's likely that Arima was promoted after that, because operation seems to be success and he was commanding officer and not just premier fighter. So you could say they were promoted at more or less same pace.
