No it is not.

Hydrated lime and concrete are quite different. hydrated lime is an addative similar to cement and used in concrete to improve the strength. it can also be added to soil to improve stability etc.

typically concrete is a mixture containing different % of rock, cement/lime, fly ash, water.

lime is a cheaper then cement however not aas effective and takes longer to harden.
