No, because a Senator is in the legislative not the executive branch. The limitation on being elected for only 2 terms was designed to prevent a person from becoming like a king. Note that the president is not restricted to "serving" 2 terms. A person is restricted from being "elected" for two terms. So, a person could be elected to 2 terms and then fill out an unexpired term of some other person that was elected.
