No - the volume for an ETF is not related to the volume of the ETF
constituents.
Some data vendors provide extensive volume data with their indices.

Subject: [amibroker] Does ETF Volume Match Index Volume?

I am not able to get good data for the indices (Eg. ^DJI) from Yahoo
but am wondering if the volume patterns for the Index ETFs closely
match the volume for the indices they are supposed to track? That is,
if volume for the ^DJI is declining (or increasing, spiking, etc.)
would the volume for the DIA accurately mirror that? Thanks.
