No, no creo que aprovecharse tenga el mismo sentido.
Atreverse, sí. Aventurarse, sí. Esperar que salga bien algún empeño con otra persona, sí.

En el matiz de 'aprovechar la oportunidad', sí vale lo de 'aprovecharse'. Pero en el sentido de 'take advantage of someone', no da igual.

Take a chance on me = Dare to take a risk on someone = Let's give it a try
