No, pumpkin is in the gourd family along with the squashes, cucumbers and melons.
The nightshade family includes tomato, potato, tabacco, eggplant and, of course deadly nightshade itself (and many others) all of which contain solinin at least in the green parts, making these parts of the plants inedible. In some cases the entire plant is poisonous.
The gourd family has non-toxic green parts.
