No, it isn`t. Worry comes from Old English "wyrgan" and Middle English "worien/werien", which both mean "to strangle". Apart of feeling uneasy,

concerned or troubled, to worry also means "to grab, pull or tear with your teeth" or "to harm or kill by biting and shaking". To worry in German is "sich sorgen". (which perhaps ties in with sorrow ?) Note: "to strangle" is "wuergen". Not much diffeent from Old English "wyrgan".
