No, the King James Version is a dated translation that is only good for it's literary value. The NIV is considered a bad translation because it often distorts what the Bible says to fit the world view of fundamentalist American Protestants. If one wants a good, modern translation, they should use the NRSV.

This, despite being a Wordpress site, has some good examples of the problems with the NIV:

Perosnally I recommend the 1599 Geneva bible. It is english enough to read and it has a pretty accurate translation of the jewish bible.
