No, that was later I believe. the Jacobites were the Stuart/Stewart kings who were unthroned and sent packing. Bonnie Prince Charlie (Charles Edward Stewart) tried to get the throne back for the family and this was the Jacobite Rebellion 1745. Just checked good old Wikipedia and the Oath was against the Jacobite in support of William and Mary of Orange who had been put on the throne in place of the Stewarts.

Calvin was 1509-1564.
