No, sasquatch is sasquatch because it’s a humanoid enigma, a lone being that’s different from almost everything around it.
Wookies have an entire planet and space faring society.
Sasquatch is an exiled Wookie.

Sasquatch might also be based on a collective memory / folklore of a 10ft tall great ape that actually existed early in Sapiens’ history:
