No. The buoyant force on an object is the portion of its weight that appears to vanish
when the object is in any fluid (could be either a liquid or a gas).
If the object happens to float in a particular fluid, then the buoyant force at that moment
is equal to the object's weight.
Notice that the buoyant force on an object will be different in different fluids.
