No.
Think of it like a cinema projection vs TV screen.
In a cinema a projector sends light onto a screen that bounces off and towards your eyes, this is a reflected light.
If you were to watch a TV of the same size it would be emitting light from LED's shining light directly to you.
There are some comments on an older thread with some good info:

- goodpoint 5y agoDirect or reflected light is just light. Same stuff. What matters is the content and quality of the light spectrum. LED lights or even LCD screens can be designed with a more or less healthy spectrum depending on the priorities of the manufacturer. But this is an economical problem that can be regulated.
