Most definitely not. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) and the Southern Baptist Convention are some of the largest religious denominations in the United States. The two groups have some very significant doctrinal differences, making it highly unlikely that they would ever merge.
Despite their differences, the Southern Baptists, Mormons, Catholics, and several other large Christian organizations have recently combined forces to defend their common interests in the public sphere regarding freedom of religion. They have spoken out with a united voice against various legislative measures that go against Biblical values or which limit the free exercise and expression of religion.

Who is the head of the Baptist church?
Asking for the head of 'the Baptist church' is like asking who is the king of the United States. There is no person who is the authority, like the Catholics' pope. Baptist churches often are part of an association, such as the Southern Baptist Convention. However, even in these associations often churches remain autonomous--there is no one with authority over all Baptist churches. The only authority figure we truly have is Jesus Christ, and that is for all true Christians alike.
What is the difference in General Baptist and Southern Baptist?
Southern Baptist Churches are members of the Southern Baptist Convention, which is not quite a denomination, because it does not truly govern the individual churches. Baptists in general hold to, among other things, "autonomy" of the local church, but through the system of seminaries, Sunday School Board, and other services, the SBC is very influential. It is an association, the largest among Baptists, through which churches pool resources both for missions and outreach, and for services back to the individual churches. There are of course any number of Baptist associations of various sizes and purposes, but none quite as extensively developed as the SBC. The original national Baptist association formed in 1814 was called the "General Missionary Convention of the Baptist Denomination in the United States of America for Foreign Missions". The SBC was formed in 1845 in part over the usually regional differences in perspectives within this association regarding slavery. At the same time the Baptist churches up North remained somewhat loosely joined until 1907, when the Northern Baptist Convention was formed. This name ultimately was changed in 1950 to the American Baptist Convention & in 1972 to American Baptist Churches, USA. During the 1930's and '40's, controversy among the Northern Baptists over adherence to Biblical beliefs spawned the general Association of Regular Baptist Churches and the Conservative Baptist Association, which continue to exist today. These are the major Baptist organizations, yet smaller groups exist & Independent Baptist churches, who often fellowship & associate together, such as the Bible Baptist Fellowship See "Related Links" below for further pertinent information:
