Nope. Check out the following from http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?search=luxor&searchmode=none: Luxor - place in Egypt, from Arabic al-Kusur, lit. "the palaces," from pl. of kasr, which is from L. castrum "fortified camp" (see castle). There are remains of Roman camps nearby. And check out http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?search=luxury&searchmode=none: Luxury - 1340, "lasciviousness, sinful self-indulgence," from O.Fr. luxurie, from L. luxuria "excess, luxury," from luxus "excess, extravagance, magnificence," probably a fig. use of luxus (adj.) "dislocated," which is related to luctari "wrestle, strain." Lost its pejorative taint 17c. Meaning "habit of indulgence in what is choice or costly" is from 1633; that of "sumptuous surroundings" is from 1704; that of "something enjoyable or comfortable beyond life's necessities" is from 1780. First used as an adjective 1930.
