Technically, no.

 

Brewer's yeast is a by-product of the brewing industry, and is usually brownish and somewhat bitter-tasting.

 

Nutritional yeast is specifically grown on molasses (usually) with the intent of being used as a supplement. Usually, it also has B12 added to it. Nutritional yeast can come in flake or powder form, tastes somewhat cheesy, and is tasty on popcorn.
