In a roundabout way, kind of, but not necessarily. If you break the word down, AN means “without” and ARCHY means “ruled by”. So you can have a MONarchy that is rule by one (mono) person, and you can have ANarchy, which is rule by no one.
Anarchists are against institutions that create or enforce authority or hierarchies. So, if an individual didn’t want their work to be FOSS or creative commons, that would be fine, but an institution that attempted to do the same thing or enforce that idea on everyone would be against Anarchist principles.
