No. "Occupation money" is money issued by military forces occupying a territory, for use by the civilians living within that territory. MPCs are "military scrip", money with which an army pays its troops but which are not legal for local civilians to use, to try to reduce black market connections between the military and the civilian economy.

A territory under military occupation usually had one or the other, but usually not both.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
