Not quite.
Jupiter is -2.5 mag right now
Venus is -3.9
Venus is lower, but, more than 5 times brighter than Jupiter right now.

I was thinking the same thing. Jupiter in is a darker part of the sky when they are visible together. Jupiter is vivid bright red in the eastern sky as Venus is setting after the sun.
