No. Porsche and Volkswagen have shared some engineering, as was most recognized by the Porsche 914. The Porsche 914 was started by Porsche, but with certain controls under Volkswagen - the car was produced using the Volkswagen 4 cylinder engine.
Today, Porsche has controlling interest in Volkswagen, at slightly more than 50%, gained in 2011. So, it can be said that Porsche owns Volkswagen today, and that future Volkswagens are made under the control of Porsche.
