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.

The Moon is approximately 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from the Sun, which is about 1 astronomical unit (AU). One light-year is the distance that light travels in one year, which is about 5.88 trillion miles (9.46 trillion kilometers).
