I'm not an expert, but I don't think so. Jews believe that when the Messiah comes the dead will be resurrected. Therefore death is not the total end because the dead will come back.

Is the Jewish definition of heaven the same as the Christians?

Judaism 101: "Traditional Judaism firmly believes that death is not the end of human existence. However, because Judaism is primarily focused on life here and now rather than on the afterlife, Judaism does not have much dogma about the afterlife, and leaves a great deal of room for personal opinion. It is possible for an Orthodox Jew to believe that the souls of the righteous dead go to a place similar to the Christian heaven, or that they are reincarnated through many lifetimes, or that they simply wait until the coming of the messiah, when they will be resurrected."Religionfacts: "Unlike the other monotheistic religions, no one view has ever been officially agreed upon, and there is much room for speculation ... A Mishnah passage says, 'This world is like a lobby before the Olam Ha-Ba [the world to come]. Prepare yourself in the lobby so that you may enter the banquet hall.' The tractate Moed Katan teaches, 'This world is only like a hotel. The world to come is like a home.' "In other words, Judaism does have a heaven in some ways similar to the Christian heaven, although less importance is placed on it than in Christianity and it is not necessary for all Jews to believe in this. There is no generally held concept of hell equivalent to the Christian hell.-----------------------Judaism doesn't teach a concept of heaven. What happens after death is actually barely discussed in Judaism as the focus of Judaism is how to live this life and improve the world to the best of our ability.There are some loose theories as to what might happen after death, primarily that after death our souls are cleansed and we either return to HaShem (The Creator) to wait for the world to come or we are reincarnated as a person to work to become closer to HaShem. There is also a theory that the soul of a person who does great evil throughout their life ceases to exist.
