No, FSX keys of Tyros2, 3 & 4 are considered semi weighted or synth weighted, 
which means each key is fully separated, has its own sheet metal spring, fully 
metal contact instead of cheap unreliable rubber contact. Same thing with 
Motifs 61 & 76 versions. I work with Yamaha & Korg and pretty sure of these 
facts. 
The 88 keyboards usually called graded hammer action. Which means each key is 
also separated and has longer metal neck to simulate e behavior of hammer 
action of real piano. 
CLP & CVP models from Yamaha have laser sensors for each key to make notes 
on/off. This method is way much better than metal contacts. 

So, if you need a key action like real piano, you should cosider, any motif 88 
key version. Or, DGX640, or one of those CLPs or high tech CVPs models.
