No, planes have either a rotary or turbine engines and most vehicles (excluding the Mazda RX-7 and RX-8, which both have rotary engines) have crank and piston engines.

Some small planes (such as the piper cub) have piston props. In fact, the Rolls Royce merlin engine used in the spitfire was also used in some custom/modified cars.
