Not even close to a light year. Light years are used to measure interstellar and intergalactic distance. Distances within the solar system are much smaller.
Since the moon orbits Earth, it is about the same distance from the sun as Earth is, give or take about 0.25%. That distances averages 1 astronomical unit, which is about 8 light minutes or 0.000016 light years.

How many lightyears is the Sun from Mars?
Mars is 12.67 light minutes away from the Sun. That is 2.40937209 × 10-5 light years.
How many lightyears is the moon from the earth?
The moon is about 0.0000000406 light years away from earth. Clearly, the moon is MUCH too close (238,000 or 239,000 miles or so) for the distance to be rendered meaningfully in light years.
