No, it's not. Although there many loan words between the two.

Farsi (Persian) and Turkish are not closely related languages, as they belong to different language families. Farsi is an Indo-European language, while Turkish is part of the Turkic language family. They have different grammatical structures, vocabulary, and sound systems.
