The Avatar and the Vibhuti

Is it true that the Avatar is the full manifestation of the Divine Vibhuti?

If you consider it from the earth’s point of view. But it may be truer to say that the Avatar holds himself back and manifests as a Vibhuti in many lives till the time comes for his manifesting as the Avatar.
