The runway's length depends on the type of aircraft that uses it. Commercial airliners typically need longer runways than small bush planes, since they weigh more and need a higher speed to take off. The longest runway in the world is at Edwards Air Force Base and is a marked section of a dry lakebed almost 40,000 feet long. The longest paved runway is at Qamdo Bamda airport in Tibet and is 18,045 feet long (this is also currently the highest airport in the world ... at high elevations, longer runways are needed for the same size plane).
So, in short: No. Not even all runways at the same airport are necessarily the same length. MCI (Kansas City International), for example, has two runways that are 9,500 feet long and one runway (1L/19R) that's 10,801 feet long. BOS (Logan International in Boston) has 6 runways ranging from just 2,557 feet to 10,803 feet.
