No.
Area and perimeter use different units to begin with; square units and linear units respectively. They can never be the same because they operate in different dimensions.
Secondly, area is found by multiplying the dimensions, length times width; in a square this is the length of one side times itself, hence the term 'squaring' to describe such an operation. Perimeter is found by adding all sides; in a square this is effectively four times one side length.

Do figures with the same perimeter have the same area?
not necessarily. take the example of a 3x3 square and a 4x2 rectangle. Both have a perimeter of 12. but the square has an area of 9 and the rectangle has an area of 8.
The larger the perimeter of a square the larger the area of that square?
The area of a square is a function of the perimeter of the square.
What is the area of the square if a square has the same perimeter as a 5 x 11 rectangle?
64
If the area of a square is 12 what is perimeter?
If the area of a square is 12 the perimeter is: 13.86
True Or False Is The perimeter of a polygon is the number of square units contained in its interior?
The perimeter of a polygon is not generally equal to the number of square units contained in its interior, which is the definition of the area of the polygon, not of its perimeter. By coincidence, the area and perimeter of a square four units on each side have the same magnitude, 16, but the perimeter is 16 units and the area is 16 square units .
