Yes, but different aspects of the Earth's motion. A day is the length of the rotation of the Earth (essentially turning around its own axis/center). A year is the length of time which the Earth moves around the Sun. Each time the Earth completes a whole revolution around the Sun, it has rotated approximately 365 and 1/4 times.
