No. There is no national office of governor, so I presume you are asking state governors. Each state chooses the date for electing their governor. Some states elect a governor on the same day as the presidential election; others have their gubernatorial elections on off years .

not necessarily

Gubernatorial elections in Delaware, Indiana, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota, Utah, Washington and West Virginia coincide with U.S. Presidential elections. Presidential elections coincide with half of the Gubernatorial elections in Vermont and New Hampshire, where the Governors serve two-year terms. In every other state the Governor is elected every four years but not in the same years as the Presidents.
