No. I would expect each atom of any particular compound to have similar but not the same mass. This is because, although each atom will have the same number of protons and electrons, they can have different numbers of neutrons. The mass of an atom is almost entirely dependent on the number of protons and neutrons.
Tin, for example, has atomic number 50 so that it has 50 protons and 50 electrons. But is has 10 stable isotopes:
In addition, there are 29 known non-stable isotopes, including Sn 126 which has a half-life of approx a quarter of a million years.
Six of the stable isotopes have an abundance of 5% or more so it is quite likely that atoms of tin have different masses.
