No.

Both Rolling Stone Magazine (founded 1967) and the Band, The Rolling Stones (Founded 1962), named themselves after the song Rollin' Stone, written recorded by Muddy Waters, in 1950

Rolling Stone magazine started out as an Indy magazine meant for the hippie culture of the time (1960s). It actually had a political section in which Hunter S. Thompson wrote. The famous gonzo writer. Later on, it started to lean more toward writing for a younger demographic, hence the music, and pop culture.

No, they were not. In fact, it would be impossible. The band formed in 1962, and the magazine in 1967. Both the band and the magazine are named after the great Muddy Waters blues song "Rollin' Stone."
