Best Answer

no.

eg, see wikipedia:

Citrus is a common term and genus of flowering plants in the family Rutaceae, originating in tropical and subtropical southeast regions of the world. The most well known examples are the orange, the lemon, the grapefruit, and the lime.

The gooseberry is a species of the genus Ribes in the plant family Grossulariaceae.

So they're from different plant families.
