No. Numbers are like words, and digits are like letters. A single numeric character is a digit. A single digit or character stands for a number of that value, just as you can have a one-letter word.

There are only ten digits in all: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. They can be arranged in any combination and quantity, and the result is a number--a grouping of symbols that represents a value. 2, 79, 8407, and 91827365149307 are all numbers, and each of them is made up of digits. Only the first of those is both a number and a digit.
