No. The reed of a woodwind is vibrated by the pressure of the breath, and the resonating chamber is the tube of the instrument. The metal "reed" of a Jews harp is plucked, with the hollow cavity of the mouth serving as a resonating chamber. Jews harps really don't fit in any of the standard categories of instruments, or rather, they stand alone as their own category.
