In my eyes, no. The reformation could not have occured without the aid of Martin Luther. Many would say that he is the father of the reformation due to his contributions and overall spark towards such a revolution. Luther's 95 Thesis will go down as one of the most important and historic events in both cultural and religious history. Luther contributed an overall sense of hope to Europe and distinguished a strong disbelief in the governmental system functioning at that time. Such events would lead to many followers who would idealize the same beliefs and actions. This was indefinitely the spark of the Reformation, and without it, any historian can argue that the Reformation would never have even occured.
The two only share a common first name, but their last names are completely different. One is 'Luther' the other is 'King', and one lived in the 1500s, and the other from 1928 (in utero) to April 4, 1968. One was German and the other American. One was white and the other black. They are in no way related if I haven't made it clear enough. Martin Luther King Jr's father, Martin Luther King, was named after Martin Luther.

Martin Luther King Junior was shot by a man named James Earl Ray. He was out on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel getting dressed for a dinner he had to attend. He was on the second floor, and room 306. The shot was fatal and it hit his right jaw.
