No, because Paul, in Romans, is talking about our imputed justification which makes us righteous in the sight of God and is a gift from Him; whereas, James is discussing our obedience to live out our faith, to live out the Christian life, and he uses the word "justification" in the sense of our faith being vindicated before men.
