No, castles were not often parts of manors. Most manors were held by members of the untitled lesser nobility, who could not afford to build castles. In many cases, the most they could afford to build was a relatively comfortable manor house.
The manor was an agricultural estate. One of its early purposes was to provide a knight with the land and production needed to provide for his horses. It also gave him an income to cover the costs of armor, and so on. It was a large estate, usually with a village, where serfs lived and there might be small workshops. It had a manor house for the lord. And it had lots of land so the food for all its residents could be grown. There were tens of thousands of these estates in a country like England or France.
If the lord was quite wealthy and felt the need to do it, he might fortify the manor house, in which case the manor house looked rather like a castle. But there were fundamental differences between a castle and a fortified manor house, one of which was that the fortified manor house did not have a ward or keep. This meant that the fortified manor house was very much smaller.
Castles usually required some sort of special permission from a monarch to be built. Kings very often had unlicensed castles torn down. The numbers of castles were kept down, so as to prevent their use in rebellions. Only people considered trustworthy had them, and these people were either royal or of the highest levels of nobility.
Castles were not normally in manors. Very few manors would have had castles as part of them. A castle was too expensive to build and maintain to be provided for by a single manor. A castle was normally owned by a king or member of the high nobility, who derived the expenses for the castle from a large number of manors.

A castle was a fort, and a manor house was the home of the lord of an estate.
