No. Have you ever looked at a tcpdump output of a DHCP transaction?
They are both non-routable. You might say that DHCP is technically layer
3, but it is restricted to the domain of layer 2.
Broadcast domain.
Both protocols depend on broadcast. That's about the only thing they
have in common.
And they're both legacy protocols.
Btw, DHCPv6 and IPv6 Neighbor Discovery do have more in comon than
DHCPv4 and ARP. Both DHCPv6 and IPv6 operate based on ICMPv6.
