No, not in general. It is rather the other way around. Infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation, and electromagnetic radiation spans multiple types of radiation, from microwaves, light, infrared, ultraviolet, radio, and more. So electromagnetic radiation could be infrared, but that is just one type of electromagnetic radiation
Telescopes are used to observe and magnify images in outer space. The electromagnetic spectrum consists of many wavelengths, which constitute visible light, infrared, microwave, and X-ray radiation. Telescopes can be manufactured to view these certain types of radiation.

Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves that are near to visible light do not generate heat and are used in TV remote controls. Infrared waves that are far from the visible end of the light spectrum are thermal and generate heat. The infrared heat from the sun, a lamp or a radiator is a type of far infrared radiation.
Sensors that primarily operate in the electromagnetic spectrum just below the range of visible light include infrared (IR) sensors. These sensors detect and measure infrared radiation, which has longer wavelengths than visible light. They are commonly used in applications such as night vision devices, remote temperature sensing, and proximity detection.
In a microwave oven, we find that microwave energy (from the microwave portion of the electromagnetic spectrum) are used. In a conventional oven, gas or electricity is used to create infrared heat, so we find infrared radiation (from the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is just below the visible light or optical portion) used there. If the oven happens to be a combination microwave and conventional, we'll find both types of electromagnetic waves generated for use inside.

Imagery produced as a result of sensing electromagnetic radiation emitted or reflected from a given target surface in the infrared position of the electromagnetic spectrum. Used with satellites to watch weather patterns when there is no light to determaine where over shooting tops are forming in a storm.

Radio waves(:From Rafaelrz: Electromagnetic radiation is the propagation of vibrating electric and magnetic fields in the form of waves. Electromagnetic radiation has wave properties and has a whole series of frequencies. Visible light is only a small part of the whole spectrum ( The electromagnetic radiation spectrum ), from the wavelength of about 0.40 to 0.76 microns. Other radiations that conform this spectrum are; gamma radiation, x-rays, ultraviolet radiation, infrared radiation, microwaves, radio waves.The term 'radiant energy' or 'radiant heat' is frequently used to refer to 'thermalradiation', which is the range of the electromagnetic spectrum with wavelengthfrom about 0.1 to 100 microns. Notice that the spectrum of light lies in the spectrum of thermal radiation.And so this radiation is responsible for heat transferbetween bodies at different temperatures separated by vacuum space (or transparent medium) . This is the radiation mechanism of heat transfer, being the other two important ones conduction and convection.
