No, I don't think so. "Mérnök" is engineer.
Interesting how these words come from different origins.
It seems obvious that "engineer" comes from "engine", a machine.
The Hungarian "mérnök", on the other hand, comes from the verb "mér". "Mérni" = "to measure". Possibly like a land surveyor would do. But, still, land surveyor is not "mérnök". It is "földmérő".
