I suppose that technically it would, it would mean something like "It is a tremendous honour".
However, it's less common to describe an honour as "geweldig" (which implies you really like it) rather than "groot" (which implies that you think it is a lot of or very important honour).

"heel" does not mean "great" when used as adjective. It just means "whole". As opposed to a half honour?

It's the whole expression "hele eer" that translates to "great honor", at least it does in Flemish.
