No; why would it be?  From /usr/include/sys/stat.h:

#define UF_NODUMP       0x00000001 /* do not dump file */
#define SF_NOUNLINK     0x00100000 /* file may not be removed or renamed */

#define UF_IMMUTABLE    0x00000002 /* file may not be changed */

nodump+sunlnk would be 0x00100001, while uchg is 0x00000002 .

# touch a b
# chflags nodump,sunlnk a
# chflags uchg b
# ls -lo a b
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  sunlnk,nodump 0 Nov 12 17:42 a
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  uchg          0 Nov 12 17:42 b
