To be quite blunt; I personally don't think so.

While the ships you have may have the levels and your gear seems to be rather robust, your Historical Ships are lacking and you're very low on resources.

While not having trophy DDs that make up much of Kurita, there are plenty of ships that are either buildable and/or are extreamly common (Takao, Atago, Myokou-Class, Shima Fleet DDs, Ise-Class...) that you just don't have. Not having enough of these historical ships could force you on a sub-optimal route that would make defeating the boss impossible.

For example: In Summer, you needed 3 Nishimura Ships to get to the boss on Medium. While bringing less was possible, you had the problem of being off-routed and having to fight an extra combat node. This, in turn, would make sinking/damaging the boss *very* difficult...if not impossible due to low ammo...and you're missing out on the damage buff from having the historicals.

This said, given the size of the Kurita Fleet, I suspect that the final map(s) will be making use of a Combined Fleet, which in turn would mean you'd need more historicals...I don't think 6 will cut it.

This being said, I would say go for it. There is nothing lost by giving the attempt! However, be aware that ship-locking and historical requirements may make things difficult for you.
