Not quite. You might be confusing the .308 (7.62 Nato) for the 7.62x39 or 7.62x54 which both have a bullet diameter of .311. The .308 has a .308 diameter bullet just like the 30-06.
As Nomercy said, putting a .308 cartridge in a 30-06 rifle will probably not go off, but if it did it would most likely cause extensive damage to rifle and shooter.
If you are really looking for a bit of confusion about bullet sizes take a look at handgun cartridges.
