Nope. Portuguese is a Romance langauge, so it’s descended from Latin, like Spanish, French, Italian, Romanian etc. But it has developed a phonology that makes it sound like a Slavic language if you don’t focus on the words being spoken.
Hungarian is an Ugric language, so there is no (demonstrable) linguistic relationship between Portuguese (or any other Indo-European language) and Hungarian. It’s related to Finnish, Sami and various minority languages spoken in the Urals region in Russia
I guess you’re thinking about basque, a language spoken in an area crossing south west France and north east Spain, that has similarities with hungarian
Isn’t Portuguese partially descended from Hungarian? Or, is it the other way around? I forget.
