Sort of.

Mass is an inherent property of matter.

Weight is the measurement of the strength of the pull of a gravity field on a mass.

Thus a 1 Kg mass will weigh 1Kg on Earth but only 1/3 Kg on the Moon where the Moons gravity is only 1/3 of that of Earth.

Thus mass does relate to weight and as mass is a property of matter weight does depend on matter.

Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object and is directly related to the mass of the object. Since matter has mass, weight does depend on matter. The more mass an object has, the greater its weight will be due to the force of gravity acting on it.
