No, not really, When you start a notebook, you could have an IPython 6 - Python 3 kernel, OR an IPython 5 - Python 2 kernel. But Notebook & Jupyter != IPython

- wodenokoto 10y agoI thought that just like the notebook, IPython was a "view" into a python kernel. Is that wrongly understood?
- takluyver 10y agoIt's a bit confusing because parts of IPython became Jupyter. But since they split, IPython is two things: the Python kernel for Jupyter, and a terminal interface that uses the same core execution machinery within the process. So it will only be possible to run Python 3 code in IPython 6, but it will still be possible to use IPython 5 as a kernel for future versions of Jupyter.
