Yes it was, but not now. The Ukraine regained its independence in 1991, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
The Ukrainian SSR was a founding member of the Soviet Union in 1922.

Formally speaking they are two different countries, but Ukraine has been under Russian rule for many centuries (until 1991), despite numerous attempts to gain independence. Russia was not ruled by Ukraine as indicated by the phrasing of the question.
Historically, they are also very different cultures and societies.
