No. 100 meters is approximately 328 feet, or 109.33 yards. They are two different lengths of race. In international competition, such as in the Olympics, the metric distance is the one most often used.

100 Meters = 328.0839895013123 Feet So if both runners ran their respective races in 10.00 seconds, the runner of the 100 meter race would have run over 28 feet further than the runner of the 100 yard dash, and therefore would have been running at a higher average speed.
