No. A dwarf and a midget are so-called, because of their small sizes. But the body shape of the dwarf is out of proportion. Most typically, the head is much larger than is expected given the overall size. In contrast, the body parts of the midget are in proportion. And the actors who played the Munchkins were the Singer Agency Midgets.

Many children actually played as munchkins in The Wizard of Oz. If you look very closley in the Munchkin Land scenes, you can see that some munchkins look to be much younger and smaller than the actual midgits.

In "The Wizard of Oz," the Munchkins' favorite color is blue. This is why their houses and clothing are predominantly blue in the movie.

L. Frank Baum wrote the original Wonderful Wizard of Oz which included the Munchkins. Screenplay writers of the Wizard of Oz, Noel Langley and Florence Ryerson adapted the characters into the theatrical production.
Wizard made the film scene in l939. The Muppets did not exist at that time. Munchkins are associated with Oz but not Muppets.
