No. A Bayes factor favouring the alternative means $B_{01}<1$, but the posterior odds are $B_{01}{O}_{01}$. They are less than one only if $B_{01}<1/O_{01}$. For example, prior odds of $1000:1$ on the null hypothesis, combined with a Bayes factor of $100:1$ in favour of the alternative, still give posterior odds of $10:1$ on the null hypothesis. An unusual claim can require substantial evidence to overcome low initial plausibility.
