No. Compare:

regular familiar wrote:
Alertness (Ex): While a familiar is within arm's reach, the master gains the Alertness feat.
Protector wrote:
Loyal Bodyguard (Ex): A protector gains Bodyguard (Pathfinder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 151) and Combat Reflexes as bonus feats. If the familiar is occupying its master’s square, it can use Bodyguard to aid another to improve its master’s AC even if it doesn’t threaten the attacking foe. This ability replaces alertness and improved evasion.
