Not quite. Ejectives are a subset of glottalized consonants. Some glottalized consonants are ejectives; others have an accompanying glottal constriction but not ejective airflow. I don't know too much about it, but I think some types of English have (non-ejective) glottalized voiceless stops syllable-finally.
