No, unless we are speaking in evolutionarily historical terms.
Both domestic cats (Felis catus), and species of foxes (in the family Canidae) are in the Mammalian order Carnivora. They are in different suborders and families, so while they no doubt share some percentage of their genome, there is no useful relationship to speak of beyond the evolutionary context.
