Not necessarily. Sometimes it is possible, sometimes not. I will give you a few examples.

(c = clubs; h = hearts; d = diamonds; s = spades)

Situation 1 (No Limit Hold'em; Limit Hold'em):

2 players hold 5c and 9c & 8c and 3c.

The board shows 7c Tc 2c Ac 4c. (5 clubs on the board).

This is a situation where the pot will not be split. In Poker the highest combination of 5 cards wins the pot. In this case the hand of player A is "Ac Tc 9c 7c 5c". The hand of player B is "Ac Tc 8c 7c 4c".

As you can see in this situation, there are 5 clubs on the board (table), yet it is not a split pot as player A has the highest value in cards in his flush.

Situation 2 (No Limit Hold'em; Limit Hold'em):

2 players hold Ac and Kd & Ks and Jc

The board shows 8h 9h 2h Ah Kh. (5 hearts on the board).

Like you can see here, there are 5 hearts on the board. None of the other players has a heart, therefore making the cards on the board the highest possible 5 card combination. In this situation the pot will be split as they hold a 5 card combination of the same value.

Following situation is not in No limit hold'em etc, but on Omaha which might be irrelevant to your question, however it is good to know this too.

Situation 3 (Pot Limit Omaha; No limit Omaha; Limit Omaha)

2 players hold Jc 9s As Ac and Kd Ks Qd Ad.

The board shows Ah Jh 3h 5h 9h. (5 hearts on the board)

As you can see, no player holds a heart, but due to Omaha having different rules (You must use 2 cards out of your hand) other combinations are possible. The hand with the highest value here is player A holding "As Ac Ah Jc Jh", A full house. Against Player B holding "Kd Ks Ad Ah 9h", 2 pair. Here the pot will not get split because neither player holds 2 hearts because neither player can claim 5 board cards.

Can you draw five new cards in a game of Five Card Draw poker?

Note that there are no Official Poker Rules. House Rules apply and there are big differences from casino to casino (or kitchen table to kitchen table). Swapping three cards is the most common, but in a lot of places swapping four cards and sometimes all cards is in the rules. If you're playing a home game, you will have to decide amongst yourselves what to do. In my experience, you can draw any number of cards, between 0 and 5.
