No, not necessarily. They are two very different conditions. Of course, some people with Asperger's (which is a high-functioning version of autism) can be bipolar, but most of the research I have seen about autism, and about Asperger's, does not link either condition with Bipolar disorder. There has been some research that shows a correlation between certain people who have autism and some who have OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder); but there again, there is no definite link between the two, and someone who has the one may not necessarily have the other.
