No, they are 2 different processes.

Breathing involves inhaling and exhaling, so that gas exchange can take place.(oxygen and carbon dioxide)

Cellular respiration is a complex process that involves a number of steps(glycolysis, link reaction, krebs cycle, oxidative phosphorylation) which contain further steps, which result in the prodution of a molecule called ATP(adenosine triphosphate) amongst other intermediate molecules(such as NADH and FADH). ATP is known as the universal energy currency. The whole purpose of respiration is to produce ATP in order to provide energy for life processes such as metabolism.

Is your breathing related to cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration and breathing are not equivalent. Cellular respiration carries out the processes of glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation and the Krebs cycle to derive energy from glucose (this can most efficiently be done in the presence of oxygen). Breathing is simply the mechanical action of the lungs, inhalation and exhalalation, with the former being the source of the oxygen required for cellular respiration.
