It depends on what you mean exactly. 380 is a bullet that is 9mm in diameter, but it is not the same as what most people mean when they say 9mm. Usually, at least in the U.S. the term 9mm refers to 9mm para which is 9x19. A 380 cartridge is 9x17, so it is shorter. It may be possible to fire a 9x19 cartridge out of a 380 gun, but it is a bad idea because it is too long, and because it is a much higher pressure cartridge.
