No. Landslides and earthquakes are two different things. A land slide is when a large mass of land gives away and slides down, and an earthquake is caused when a fault occurs, a break in the rock. Or stress built up at plate tectonics (it depends of the type of faults what occured). They are two completely unrelated things and will not affect each other.
