No. They're different. "Newton" is a unit of force. "Joule" is a unit of energy.
A small force (1 newton) that pushes a Basketball 10 miles can deliver more energy
than a large force (a thousand newtons) that pushes it 1 foot.
Work done is a measure of expended energy, so the SI unit for work done is the same as for energy - the Joule.

The joule (J) is named after James Prescott Joule. One joule is defined as the amount of work done by a force of one newton moving an object through a distance of one metre.
The joule is defined in the SI system as the work done in moving 1 meter against a force of 1 newton, so yes one newton.meter is one joule. The joule is the fundamental unit of work or energy in the mechanical sense, but it can also be equated with thermal energy via the mechanical equivalent of heat, 1 calorie = 4.1868 joules. From the above mechanical definition, the Joule has dimensions of [M] x [L2] x [T-2], since the Newton as a force has dimensions of [M] x [L] x [T-2]CommentCare must be taken not to confuse newton metre in the sense of work (where the force acts in the same direction as the distance travelled) with the newton metre used to measure torque (where the force acts at right angles to a radius of rotation).
joule
1 joule is the same (by definition) as 1 newton x 1 meter. It is also the same as 1 watt x 1 second.
Joule is the unit of energy, representing work done or expended in moving an object over a distance. Newton is the unit of force, measuring the amount of force needed to move or stop an object. In essence, joule quantifies energy, whereas newton quantifies force.
Work done is a measure of expended energy, so the SI unit for work done is the same as for energy - the Joule.
The joule is the unit of energy/work. It is equal to the energy (or work) required to apply a force of 1 newton, along a distance of 1 meter (in the same direction as the force).
Joules. Work = Force (N) x Distance (m) N x m = Joules
The SI (International System of Units) unit of work is the joule (J). One joule is equal to the work done by a force of one newton acting over a distance of one meter.
The physical quantity of weight is Newton (N). Weight shares the same SI unit as force. ;)

The Newton cannot be converted into meters; they don't measure the same thing. Newtons measure force or weight. The Newton is however a derived unit; a kgm/s>2.
Units that are not the same. For example, metre, square centimetre and Newton. A metre is a measure of distance, a square centimetre is a measure of area, a Newton is a measure of force.
