No. A user that's logged into Windows with UAC enabled using a user account that's in the Administrator group is not the same as being logged into Windows with UAC enabled using a user account that's in the Administrator group and taking the conscious decision to execute a program with "Run as Administrator". When a program is executed by an administrator and UAC is enabled, that program is executed in restricted security mode to restrict what resources the program has access to at runtime. When UAC is enabled, this feature automatically works to supply the program being executed a security token (otherwise known as a SID or security identifier) relating to the executing admin users' security context with the SID for the Administrator group removed. When the "Run as Administrator" option is taken by an admin user, this forces the program to be launched with an unrestricted full access set of SIDs. It's a security feature. Many people do switch UAC off. You do that at your own risk.
