No. In this sentence, "as you and I are" is an implied clause
whose verb has been omitted. So the nominative case is correct.

(Yes, many people who IMHO should know better do often say
"x and I" instead of "x and me" in situations where the latter
is correct. One of my pet peeves! But this is not an example
of such.)
