No. The Earth is a spinning sphere, and the axis of the rotation matches the Earth's surface at the north pole and the south pole. If the Earth had an axle, that's where they would poke out. The Earth is also a giant magnet, like an enormous bar magnet. The orientation of this magnet, and the magnetic lines of force from it, are not lined up with the physical axis of the Earth's rotation. The "north magnetic pole" is somewhere in northern Canada, while the south magnetic pole is in Antarctica. When navigating with a magnetic compass, the compass doesn't point at the north pole; it points to the north MAGNETIC pole. In most of Europe, there wasn't a whole lot of difference, but in North America, the difference between true and magnetic north can be dozens of degrees. Navigational maps will list lines of "magnetic variation", which is the difference between true north and magnetic north, so that you can apply the appropriate correction.

Feng Shui was the inventor of the compass.I do not agree to that.Feng Shui was the name of the thing they used the compass for, not the person who invented the compass!
I don't believe the actual name of the person is known considering how old the compass actually is. The magnetic compass is an old Chinese invention, first made in China during the Qin dynasty (221-206 B.C.)

The difference is referred to as magnetic, or compass, declination.

because the compass was modified by many cultures that we can't name one inventor

it is the compass that people use in science for seeing directions
