Not at all. Aluminum oxide is a compound of aluminum, not an allotrope. An allotrope of aluminum would still be called aluminum, but sometimes we distinguish allotropes by assigning numbers, such as sulfur-1, sulfur-2, etc. It refers to the specific structure which the atoms form (such as crystaline vs. amorphous).
