No. They are both fictions, but the Fantasy genre is explicitly castles, wizards, dragons, etc. Sci-Fi is called Sci-Fi and not Fantasy for a reason.
To be fair there is a lot of grey area in the middle. Steampunk and Spelljammer say hi. There's a reason they blend together so easily, it's because they are very close cousins.

Yeah. Star Wars blurs it as well, being kinda of a Science Fantasy, but the distinction is generally what I laid out. Exceptions don't disprove a general rule.

It's more common that that. A lot of fantasy setting have, for example, a lot of sci-fi in their background. Wheel of time for example, or the Pern Novels, or a lot of stuff by David Gemmel, etc etc.
