Cut in and cut off

Hi~teachers~

I am wondering if 'cut in' and 'cut off' can be used interchangeably in the case.

"I was cut off (cut in) (while driving)." (to suddenly https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/drive in https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/front of a moving car)

"She cut off (cut in) while I was speaking." (interrupt)

Thanks in advance~
