Yes and No

All waves like that or electomagnetic waves that are the same thing but just operate on different frequencies and wavelengths

But not microwaves are as much radio waves as they transmit heat signatures are well as slight audio signature

Essentially no but they are very similar microwaves are just faster and at a different wavelengths
