No. "Wrap your fingers" implies control, whereas "Cross your fingers" implies luck.

not exactly you can wrap your fingers around something or wrap them on an object. or in the old days they used to wrap your fingers with a ruler in school for being naughty in class.

I believe you mean "wrap AROUND your fingers" which means you've allowed the person who's supossed to submit to control you. "Cross your fingers" actually means hope for a good outcome to a not-so-good situation.
