In most cases, no. In many cases they're nowhere near each other in three-dimensional space, and only appear to be near each other from our vantage point.

There are a couple of notable exceptions; for example, most of the bright stars in Ursa Major (including all the stars in the "big dipper" except for Alpha and Eta, which are the ones at each end) are part of the Ursa Major Moving group (not quite a cluster, but definitely associated with each other).
