No, not in general. It is rather the other way around. Infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation, and electromagnetic radiation spans multiple types of radiation, from microwaves, light, infrared, ultraviolet, radio, and more.

So electromagnetic radiation could be infrared, but that is just one type of electromagnetic radiation
