Probably not. Powers and Power are two different last names.

It's like saying one person with the surname Olfasson and one with the surname Olafsen might be related.

Yes, they are both patronymics for someone who had an ancestor named Olaf but each probably had an ancestor who was a different Olaf and who probably lived in a different Nordic country.
