The bottom line is no.
The number listed on a speaker as "x ohms" is the NOMINAL value of Impedance
(resistance to AC [Alternating Current] over a frequency band [10-20K Hz]),
having nothing (well, very little) in common with the resistance value of a
resistor.
There's more to it (impedance) than that, Google for "speaker impedance".
