Yes, but the NT does say that Noah's ark and the flood prefigured baptism which saves us, and the NT says we are baptized into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.


God waited patiently in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water. And baptism, which this prefigured, now saves you—not as a removal of dirt from the body, but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers made subject to him.


• The ark had one door (Genesis 6:16); Jesus claimed to be "the door" to salvation (John 10:9).
• God invited Noah to come into the ark (Genesis 7:1); Jesus said, "Come to me, all you that are weary" (Matthew 11:28).
• The ark was made of wood (Genesis 6:14) just as the cross was.
• Because God saved him, Noah "remained alive" (Genesis 7:23); Jesus gives us eternal life (John 10:28).
• In type the rain that fell was God’s wrath on a sinful world. It fell on the ark, not on those in the ark, in the same way that God’s wrath fell on Jesus on the cross and not on us.
