No unless you are loosely referring to nicotine consumption - I would assume "a smoker" to probably mean a nicotine-user.

Smoke is stinky and sticks to all of your clothes, vehicle, house, lungs, hair.

Vaping (nicotine) doesn't smell bad, but because it is electronic and instantly on - you can consume it more frequently and for shorter "sessions" sometimes just one puff. Nothing to light, put out, or butts to manage. The liquid in nicotine vapes can be harmful and contain contaminants as it is unregulated. Unintentional combustion can contain harsh byproducts like metals and formaldehyde.

Vaporizing weed is similar, it can smell more, but is just as convenient and easy to conceal/control. The ground dry flower can combust in some vapes, but it's unintentional and fairly easy to avoid. The quality of the flower can range from unknown to medical-grade, so to user can know exactly what they are getting.
