Despite some physical resemblance and acting role similarities it appears that the answer is no. :)

Marvin was born in New York City in 1924. He was the son of Lamont Waltman Marvin, an advertising executive and the head of the New York and New England Apple Institute, and his wife Courtenay Washington (née Davidge), a fashion writer and beauty consultant. He died in 1987.
