No. Flax is the plant that produces flax seed and linen fiber, Linum usitatissimum. Jute is the plant that produces burlap or hessian fibers. There are at least two kinds Corchorus olitorius (tossa jute fiber) and Corchorus capsularis (white jute fiber)

Flax seed plants (Linum usitatissimum) and jute plants (Corchorus species) are different. Flax seed plants are grown mainly for their seeds that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, while jute plants are cultivated primarily for their fibers used in making textiles, ropes, and burlap. Both plants belong to different botanical families and have distinct uses.
