Not quite.  They are both ways of moving data traffic between the modem
and the computer, but they are very different.

MBIM will expose what looks like an ethernet interface on your computer
(as opposed to a PPP network interface) and you would use mbimcli or
another tool like ModemManager to request the IP address/gateway/DNS
details from the modem firmware via an MBIM command.  Those details
then get applied to the network interface and data traffic should be
available.
