No, they are different. (and not to condone name-calling or sterotyping, but there terms are obviously in the vernacular, so the following is simply an explanation of how they are used...)

A hillbilly generally refers to someone who lives in the mountains and is detached from popular culture by virtue of the geographical distance; they don't have any ideological objections to it. A redneck is often (but not always) from the southern regions of the U.S. and makes a decision to place less emphasis on education and culture even when it's available, and instead values simpler, more base pursuits like sex, driving and drinking (in various combinations).
