No, don't get confused with the two.

Subscription is when you don't have a permanent license but want to subscribe for some period of time. As in "renting" the software.

Perpetual License is perpetual as in you own the license and it does not stop working as long as you own it. Whatever software version released when your Support Plan has been active is available for you to use "in perpetuity". If you want to get access to new versions you need to have active Support Plan.
