No. Because they are different
Massive competition occurs when 2 organisms have the sane niche. The organisms are 2 species.

why are members of the same genus more likely to compete for a niche than organisms than in different families

COMPETITION competition
COMPETITION competition
If two species occupied the same niche, they would be competing for the exact same resources. The competitive exclusion principle states that one of the species would drive the other to extinction.
In theory, multiple organisms can occupy the same niche through resource partitioning, where each species uses different resources or occupies a different part of the niche. However, intense competition may limit the number of species that can coexist in a specific niche in reality.
Members of the same genus are more closely related and share similar resource requirements and adaptations, leading to more direct competition for the same niche within an ecosystem. Organisms in different families may have more distinct evolutionary histories and ecological needs, resulting in less overlap in resource utilization and competition for a niche.
In some cases, yes for example if the organism has a mate or babies, they will share the same niche. But, in the majority of cases no, organisms have their own niche.
Organisms of the same species can occupy slightly different niches within an ecosystem to avoid direct competition. This is known as niche differentiation. However, they generally have overlapping niches as they have similar ecological requirements.
When two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche, they often compete for resources such as food, water, shelter, and mates. This competition can lead to one organism outcompeting the other, the partitioning of resources to reduce competition, or the evolution of differences that allow for coexistence. In some cases, one species may ultimately outcompete and displace the other.
