Yes and no. Yeast is a fungi, but seaweed is usually in the plant kingdom though some are in the protist kingdom, and very, very few are prokaryotes (Cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae). There are three types of seaweed: green, red, and brown. Most of the green seaweed are plants. Seaweed is considered an algae, an eclectic group that is not a kingdom unto itself but a composite category, mostly plants.
My fault, they are mostly kingdom Protista, but the overall thrust of what I'm saying is that seaweed is not a fungi.

Though there may be some plants that are given a broad description as seaweed, any algae are in Kingdom Protista and are not plants.
Yeast is a single-celled member of Kingdom Fungi.
