No- the president has virtually no power over a governor's decisions unless they violate federal law. If a governor defies federal law, as happened, for example, in Arkansas in 1957, the president can use federal troops to enforce the law. The president can sometimes put pressure on a governor by holding up federal funds to his state.

The federal government IS the president, but Congress CAN override a veto with a 2/3 vote. To be clear, it is important for you to understand that the federal government refers to all the offices and support in the national government.
