No. Both are eastern Slavic languages. While there are similarities between the languages, they are distinct.

In many parts of Ukraine Russian, or a Russian-Ukrainian creole called "surzhyk", is spoken. This stems from the fact that after the depopulation of Eastern Ukraine by the Soviet state-sponsored Famine-Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33, many areas were repopulated by the with ethnic Russians. Additionally, there was an official Russification program both under the czars (Ems Ukase) and under the Soviets, which at times banned the use of the Ukrainian language, and generally discouraged its use.
