Not even close, no. Anarchy is a different axis from the Western political spectrum. Right and left define what kind of governance and what philosophy is behind said governance, more than they do how much.
Right is typically thought of as being such because they oppose the constant growth of government power that would occur under leftism, but that does not imply that the right itself is anarchic.
You're much further away than I am, because you're using the contemporary 'definitions', ie the modified and invalid ones. Size of government has nothing to do with it.
Right-wing refers to a civic perspective that places value on individuality and tradition. This can either be achieved by using the government to enforce tradition and uphold individual liberty, which requires strong government, or by throwing out the government altogether and letting the natural order sort out what hierarchies and traditions remain through individual agency.
The former is referred to as a traditional conservative, and the latter a far-right extremist. Both are right-wing, and both have dramatically different views on the scope and power of government.
If you're going to futilely cling to the comically absurd notion that the left/right-wing verbiage came from Christianity and not the French Revolution, then there's no more discussion to be had here.

No, I'm using the absolutely ancient definitions, from back when this was first started two centuries ago.
Back then, the left stood for anarchy and tyranny both. The right stood for Christian monarchism.
Lol. K.

The French Revolution is what I'm talking about. In which the right had not one damn thing to do with anarchy. That's the entire friggin point.
