Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Neither one of them are good for you, but people tend to consume far more sugar than fat on a daily basis. For example a typical donut may contain 10g of saturated fat, but at the same time 50g of sugar. Sugar has been proven to make people gain weight as it is stored in parts of the body such as the thighs and stomach, thusly creating fat.
There are also good kinds of fat such as monounsaturated and polyunsatured, which are both very good for you. The only kinds of fat that are not good are saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol.
On the other hand there are also natural sugars found in fruit. But most of the sugars that people consume are additives and preservatives often found in cookies and pastries.
