I don't think it has anything to do with it. Android's security comes from design, not language. Each application runs under its own UID and not all applications can draw arbitrary content on your screen, for example.
Those things could be on the Linux Desktop. And maybe flatpak will bring it to us. But for now I can already hear the screeching about "freedom" and "the Unix philosophy".
