No it is not.
Socket A is sometimes referred to as Socket 462.
Socket 754 is/was simply a budget/dead end socket and was only ever
(commonly) referred to as Socket 754.

Cheers!

Socket 754 is scheduled to outlast socket 939 in the market
according to AMD's roadmap. Socket A chips migrated over to the 754
socket. I think you can still find a few old athlons disguised as
socket 754 semprons.
