No. RAND_MAX is for rand() not random().
>From posix for random():
The random() function shall use a non-linear additive feedback
random-number generator employing a default state array size of
31 long integers to return successive pseudo-random numbers in
the range from 0 to 2^31 - 1.

The rand() function shall compute a sequence of pseudo-random
integers in the range [0, {RAND_MAX}]
