No, a proper noun is the name of a specific person, place, or thing.

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun (a common or proper noun) in a sentence.

Examples:

When George got to 19th Street, he got off the train. (The pronoun 'he' takes the place of the proper noun 'George' in the second part of the sentence.)

We visited Disneyland on our vacation. It was very colorful.

Where are the Oreos that I bought. I put them in this cabinet.

Are nouns the same as pronouns?

Nouns are not the same as pronouns. A pronoun can replace a noun when the meaning is clear. You could write, "Bill checked out the book and then Bill went home." You could use a pronoun. "Bill checked out the book and then he went home." You could not write. "He checked out the book and then he went home." The Third sentence in quotes starts with a pronoun. No one knows who this "He" might be. It is confusing. The first sentence works. It is awkward. The second sentence is the best. The pronoun replaces the second Bill. Pronouns and nouns do the same job but they are not the same.
