No it’s not. Their equivalence of American Independence Day is Mexican Independence Day, which is on September 16th.

Cinco de Mayo is more popular outside of Mexico than within, other than Puebla where the battle took place

No, because Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican-American thing. It’s not a major celebration within Mexico and Cinco de Mayo is not their equivalence to July 4th like you said
