No. Bob Dylan was a successful musician/poet at the same time that The Beatles were enjoying success. They met in New York, and Bob Dylan introduced them to marijuana. Bob Dylan and the Beatles inspired one another and exchanged creative ideas, but neither were the direct cause of the other's success. ----- It is said that Dylan was encouraged to "go electric", abandoning pure Folk Music, after he heard "I Want To Hold Your Hand". (He also mistook the song's line "I can't hide" as "I get high", and thought the Beatles already smoked.) His career in America took off about the same time the Beatles's did in England.
