Not quite.

Mobi is both a file format (Palm DataBase (PDB) containing a version of HTML 3.2 as one text stream, with images) and a file name extension usually used for that file format. There are several versions of that format, the 'current' version being 7.

AZW is just a file name extension. There's no specific file format associated with it, and Amazon uses it for any of their file formats.

AZW3 is the file name extension used for the KF8 format, which is a PDB containing HTML 4.0, CSS2 and image files, very similar to the specs for the internals of an ePub.
