No they aren't, but they directly used audio from it.

There's a difference between WoW having a character named Harrison Jones who's largely a parody of Indiana Jones who's quests are archaeology based and kinda silly. It's another thing entirely if they used repurposed clips from Raiders of the Lost Ark for his voicelines.
