No. The Gulf of California is a body of water on the west of Mexico which separates the Baja California Peninsula (south of the US state of California) from the mainland Mexico.
The Gulf of Mexico is on the southeastern US and east of Mexico, and US states such as Florida, Louisiana and Texas have shores on that body of water.
