No.
Not like the ANG. Would have to come from active duty to fly in the Navy Reserves as a selected reservist (Part time like many in traditional Reserve/Guard squadron service member) . Know an Army helicopter pilot who was picked up after flying airliners to fly Navy Reserve C-9/C-40 (737).
Active duty Marine Aviators occasionally transfer to Navy Reserve after complete active obligations.
Good journeys
