Not quite. It is better to say that Octavian's rise to power consolidated the end of the republic. During Julius Caesar's rule, the republic was all but dead and Caesar's dictatorial powers effectively ended the republic. Although men like Cicero, Pompey and Brutus tried to keep it going, they were unsuccessful.

No, the republic had been dying a slow death since the time of Sulla. Caesar, although holding a legitimate republic office, that of dictator, could be said to have brought about the end of the republic. By the time of Octavian's bid for power against Antony, the dysfunctional senate was split between the two men. Octavian's victory over Antony was simply the last nail in the republic's coffin.

No, looking back, it was Julius Caesar's rise to power that signaled the end of the republic. Remember, the senate gave Caesar dictatorial powers for life, thereby giving him all the governing power.
