Not even close, the radiation from a nuke is 100 times worse that's 200k tons of regular explosives...
Modern airburst munitions have a radioactivity profile that's intended to dissipate in a few weeks.
Because, you know, you generally want to be able to claim the territory you've flattened.
Not just claim territory, it's wasted munitions: Any radioactivity could have gone boom, and made boom bigger. Leftover boom means less boom when you needed it.
Some do most don't.
