NO
The crust-mantle boundary is called the Mohorovicic Discontinuity or the MOHO for short. The MOHO is a place where seismic P-waves suddenly increase in velocity, presumably because they are able to travel faster through the denser mantle rocks. ... The MOHO is NOT the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary.
