0 is absolutely nothing. Infinity is absolutely everything. So, no.
Although there are some interesting mathematical phenomena that seem to make this true (2/0=x) they are not equal.

The inverse of infinity is a number approaching zero but less than any other number. This means that it is close to zero but not equal to it, a infinitesimal number.
Because zero is nothing. The figure zero isn't actually a number - it's a place-filler. Dividing anything by nothing will always result in the answer infinity.
Any number (apart from 0) divided by 0 is equal to infinity.
Zero times infinity is defined as "indeterminate".
When the denominator is equal to zero, the expression is undefined. Close to those places, the expression tends towards plus infinity, or minus infinity. In other words, setting the denominator to zero will tell you where there are vertical asymptotes.
