Uhhhh, no. Pressure and density are never the same thing.

d = PM/RT where d=density, P=pressure, M=mass, R=universal gas constant, and T=temp. The density can be changed by changing the temperature without changing the pressure at all. You can see (hopefully) from that equation that lowering the temperature will increase the density with no change in pressure.
