No.
Under CC-BY-SA, the copyright to OSM data is vested in the individual contributors. If you happen to use data provided solely by one or a few OSM contributors, you can ask them if they are willing to provide their data to you under a different license. ▼

▲Under the proposed ODbL structure, the Foundation will be contractually bound to the bulk of OpenStreetMap individual contributors to license the data only under a specific license. Initially, this will be ODbL 1.0. The Foundation will have the right to change that license to meet future conditions but only if is "free and open" and only under a mechanism that involves getting the consent of then active contributors. As with CC-BY-SA, copyright to individual contributions remains with the contributor and their consent can be asked directly.
