Yes and no. Wireless communication covers any means of sending data without wires, which could include data sent over the cellular network or even via satellite. WiFi refers specifically to short distance, high speed wireless networks, often found in homes, cafes and small businesses. The short range is what generates 'hot spots'. Technology for wider area WiFi style networks exists but is rarely used.
