You are probably talking etymology, since obviously they are different materials.

Etymologically, both have vague origins, but the guesses tend to go in different directions. Nonetheless cinnabar may have influenced the development of the word cinnamon, because both were often used as a red powder.

There are many unrelated words whose spelling and pronunciation converge because of what is a sort of folk etymology between them, people assuming the words are related in some way, and therefore treating them similarly.

No. Cinnamon is a spice made from the inner bark of several different trees, whereas Cinnabar is a common Mercury ore (mercury sulfide) that can give you mercury poisoning if eaten.
