No, a pill bug is not a type of millipede, they're actually crustaceans, and not closely related.

Pill bugs used to be one of the few exclusively terrestrial crustaceans, but now almost all insects are classified as crustaceans, so, i'd have to double check the phylogenies.

Ah, apparently pill bugs and pill millipedes are different! Thank you for the correction.
