No. The ozone layer sits in the Earth's stratosphere, 10 to 50 kilometers or 6 to 31 miles from the Earth's surface.

Is the moon situated inside the ozone layer?

The moon does not have an ozone layer due to various factors. Firstly because there is no oxygen present there which could be converted into ozone. Since the oxygen molecules are the basic ones which are responsible for the formation of ozone thus there is no ozone on the moon.


Without earths magnetic field what would happen to earths ozone?

Probably very little would change if you either doubled the magnetic field strength, reversed it, or made it zero. If you reversed it, the larger hole might form over the north pole. UV-C from the Sun makes ozone in the ozone layer, most solar wind (the stuff affected by our magnetic field) does not survive to reach the ozone layer. The poles might retain a bit more ozone into the late spring, with a nearly unmeasureable decrease in overall ozone levels to match.
