No, while they might work in the same setting the nurse anesthetist is typically higher trained and is concerned about the patient and making sure their vitals are stable throughout the surgery since they're the ones administering the anesthesia. A surgical nurse on the other hand will help assist whoever is performing the surgery' so it's two completely different jobs and concerns that they focus on.
