No, absolutely none. For any "significant" advantage at least.

What _is_ significant is that a sequence of floated boxes (either way
you describe) has better fluid behaviour than <table> markup.

<ul><li>... markup is arguably more appropriate than meaningless
<div>s, as there is some vague notion of a "list" structure to these
thumbnails. That's pretty tenuous though.

Default CSS rendering of <div> is likely to be more appropriate than
for <ul><li>, in some fallback cases.

Neither of these distinctions is major. I'd use <div>
