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.
