Strictly speaking no. Alchemy, the father of Chemistry, is actually deeply rooted in Hellenistic (Greek influenced Egypt from the 4 century BC onward) Science and many scientific discoveries and techniques were first developed by alchemists, including distilation, analysis, and synthesis of new substances. Witchcraft on the other hand is a form of devination rising from pagan and neo pagan influences. Where people get confused is that both Alchemy and witchcraft both come from pagan sources and were in vogue during Medival times. The difference is that Alchemy was practiced by very well educated men and witchcraft by female outcasts of little or no education.
