No. We use two different kinds of ounce. The "fluid ounce" is a unit of volume.

8 of them make 1 cup, 32 of them make 1 quart, and 128 of them make 1 gallon.

The other "ounce" is a unit of weight (force). 16 of them make one pound.

These two kinds of "ounce" are completely different things.

Aren't you glad we don't have to struggle with the complicated and confusing

metric system.
