Absolutely not.
The snakeboard (aka streetboard) has been around since 1989, and is an extreme sport with many board companies & riders all around the world.
The waveboard (aka casterboard, ripstik, vigorboard) is a toy which is only similar in that it uses the same principal of being a self-propelled board. The waveboards were only able to be manufactured after the original Snakeboard patent expired.
The snakeboard has 4x wheels and trucks similar to a skateboard. Some have thin centre-bars, others have wide ones. All snakeboards can have footstraps attached and riders can do all sorts of crazy tricks; in vert ramps, skateparks, miniramps, or the street.
Ripstiks / waveboards have 2x "caster wheels", no trucks, no centre bar, no straps, and you cannot do half the amount of tricks on them that are possible on the snakeboard.

The boards are called 'streetboards' now. They still have the same core design (two pivoting footplates joined by a centre bar), however most modern boards are low and made from plywood as this was found to be the best design for extreme tricks & stunt riding - Where as the oldschool boards from Snakeboard® were made from plastic and had narrow crossbars. Snakeboard®stopped producing boards in 1997. Dimenion Streetboards bought the company a couple of years ago and they recently released two new boards using the modern streetboard design.Basically what I am saying is, if you are looking to buy a snakeboard / streetboard, you will have the best luck looking for one Online and you will find it much easier to find the modern boards (made from plywood) than the oldschool plastic boards.Hope this helps!
