Nope, they are caused by different HPV strains.
However, having HPV strains that cause genital warts doesn't mean you don't have HPV strains that cause Cervical cancer.
Majority of genital warts infection are caused by HPV strain 6 and 11
while majority of cervical cancer HPVs are strain 16 and 18.
They aren't related. but again, it's possible that you have both strain 6 and 18 for example. it's the same thing for people who never had genital warts. They might have strain 16 or 18, who knows?
But keep in mind most people cleared up their HPV infection within 2 years. Females who had abnormal pap smear test usually would always be normal again when they got retested 2 years later
Only very small minority of females with strain 16 and 18 that develop cervical cancer in the end (1-3% or even less)
