NO!

the cobras belong to the elapidae family which are a group of highly venomous snakes

when the king snakes belong to the colubridae family a non venomous group

The reason they are called king cobras is because they are the biggest of the venomous

snakes and can kill a man in minutes between 15-120 mins.
