No, aspirin is an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug). It inhibits the cyclooxygenase enzyme to reduce the body's inflammation response. It also has some blood thinning effects as well.
Antihistamines, on the other hand, work by blocking the H1 histamine receptors to reduce the histamine reaction associated with Allergies. Examples are diphenhydramine (Benadryl) and doxylamine (found in Unisom and Nyquil).
They often have anticholinergic effects which produce sedation.
There are other antihistamine drugs that block H2 receptors, but those are mainly associated with reducing stomach acid production. Examples of these are: Cimetidine (Tagamet) and Ranitidine (Zantac).
No. It is what is called a NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug). An antihistamine acts against histamine which the body makes in response to an allergy. The allergy response is redness, itchiness, and swelling.

No, you don't want to take two of the same medications. If the Zyrtec is not taking care of your allergies, don't take a second antihistamine on top of it. You need to switch from Zyrtec to some other antihistamine. It might be time to see your doctor and try a stronger antihistamine. Taking too much antihistamine can cause breathing difficulty.
Can you take Zyrtec and Tylenol PM together?
Because they both contain antihistamines, they will cause a reaction. Tylenol PM has the same antihistamine as Benadryl and it is not recommended that you take Zyrtec and Benadryl at the same time. Contact you doctor to verify if you can take your Zyertec in the morning (as usually prescribed) and the Tylenol in the evening. Zertec is a long acting antihistamine and should be out of your system before you go to bed. The Tylenol PM is a short acting antihistamine and would be out your system before your morning dosage.
