No they aren't. Amon-Ra is 2 gods that came together to make 1, and Ra is a completely different god. Amon-Ra was the sun god, and would defeat the god of darkness, and would make the sun rise each day.

Egyptian god ra?

well... Ra is known to be the father of the gods or "the" ancient Egyptian god. The Egyptians believed that in the beginning, the universe was filled with the dark waters of chaos. The first god, Re-Atum, came from the water. Re-Atum spat and this created the gods Shu (god of air) and Tefnut (goddess of moisture). The world was created when Shu and Tefnut gave birth to two children: Nut (goddess of the sky) and Geb (god of the Earth). Humans were created when Shu and Tefnut went walking in the darkness and got lost. Re-Atum sent his eye to find them. After finding them, his tears of joy turned into people. from wikipedia.
