The short answer is no.
Gmail archives to its own all mail folder. Your best bet in my opinion is use Google takeout to archive all mail be label and subsequently import that to Thunderbird as the MBOX format used is compatible with Thunderbird. How to delete all your mail I have no idea. Gmail tends to make that hard.
