Technically, no. But in culinary terms rind refers only to the orange bit - not the white pith. Peel is a term that is usually reserved for 'candied peel' where more of the pith is left on and then cut up and candied in sugar syrup.

That part of the orange (or lemon) that is peeled away from the fruit is called the peel. The rind is the colored "zest" that is scraped from the orange (lemon). Rind refers to a "zest" (a light scraping) of a citrus fruit.
