Noooo. Orange pekoe is called such because when the Dutch East India Company brought black tea back to Europe, the best of it was given to the Dutch royal family, who happened to be from the House of Orange. So when it was made available to the public, it was called "Orange" pekoe so you knew it was the stuff that used to be only for royalty. It has nothing to do with fruit.
This tea is either Mandarin or Tangerine Pu'erh, which is named for the obvious reason. Packing it in the tangerine/orange skins infuses the tea with its flavour. Other teas also contain/are infused with citrus flavours as well, most famously Tea, Earl Grey, Hot. Earl Grey (another tea named after the upper crust who drank it first) contains bergamot, which is a weird little wrinkly green citrus fruit, and that's why it smells and tastes so absolutely divine.
