Yes it is, and it is written as Mercury (II) oxide
IUPAC names: Mercury(I) oxide for Hg2O and Mercury(II) oxide for HgO
Yes, Mercury(II) oxide, also called mercuric oxide or simply mercury oxide are all the smae compound.
Mercuric oxide or mercury (II) oxide : HgO
The chemical formula (NOT: equation) for mercury oxide is (there are two possibillities):Mercury(I) oxide (mercurous oxide), Hg2O.Mercury(II) oxide (mercuric oxide), HgO
mercuric oxide That name is used as the systematic or common name for a compound. This compound is also known as Mercury (II) oxide due to the oxidation number of a transition metal being used in the IUPAC nomenclature. The compound, Hg2O, would, therefore, be known as Mercury (I) oxide or mercurous oxide.

HgO
HgO
HgO
2HgO → 2Hg + O2 Mercury (II) oxide → Mercury (II) + Oxygen
Mercury only has a two and one oxidation state. HgO would be the formula for mercury II oxide.
