No. The Soviets were fighting the Germans in WW2, just like the Allied forces and after WW2 the West and Russia were in Cold War stances. That means that they were very unfriendly, but never actually went to war. Had fighting happened there could have been nuclear war.

The cold war was about nuclear weapons; without nukes, there would have been no cold war. Only the US had nukes prior to 1949; the US was the most powerful nation on earth...in 1949 the Soviets (Russians) tested their first nuke. They had the "bomb" now. The power had shifted.
