Not even remotely. The Mayan calenday was not only structured differently in terms of what we would call weeks/months/years, its dating system was completely different.
The modern Gregorian calendar (which has only been in use a few hundered years) is based off a solar year (approximately 365 days) and lunar months (approximately 28 days, though this has since changed to the 30/31 days we now use) and used as its start date the approximate birth of Christ (day 1, month 1, year 1, 01/01/0001).
However we know now that this date slid around quite a bit in the early periods of the church (modern estimates put the birth of Christ somewhere in August of 10-15 BC).
