Not precisely. "Entente" is French for "understanding", and could in practical terms mean much the same thing that an alliance would, or could simply mean that two countries have a basic mutual agreement on some issue ... perhaps simply not to attack each other (but not necessarily to come to each other's aid, as would usually be implied by the word "alliance.")
