No. A cornet is like a Trumpet, except that the tubing gradually gets wider from the leadpipe all the way out to the bell (the trumpet has a fixed-width bore). A pocket trumpet is just a trumpet with very tightly wrapped tubing.

How many cornets in a orchestra?

The trumpet, deriving from the natural trumpets of the Baroque era, have been the standard high brass instrument in symphony orchestras. The cornets, which developed later, were thought to be too "vulgar" in sound. Trumpets were always regarded as more regal and noble in nature. In addition, trumpets can simply produce a much greater volume of sound. The cornet does occasionally feature in orchestral music but its home is more likely to be a British brass band or a military band of some sort.
