No they do not. Strong acids can ionize with metal faster because they have a higher concentration

Is magnesium nitrate a base or acid?
Neither. Strictly speaking it is a very weak base. A Magnesium Nitrate solution is neutral with a pH of 7.0. Salts of strong acids are neutral. Magnesium Nitrate is salt of Nitric acid which is very strong acid.
Would magnesium react with dilute sulfuric acid?
Sure, it will. Magnesium is a very active metal and reacts with all acids to liberate hydrogen gas.
Why Magnesium React with Hydrochloric Acid violently?
In general, acids react with metals in a replacement reaction, since metals can replace the hydrogen component of the acid. The more electropositive the metal is, and the stronger the acid it, the more energetic the reaction will be, and in the case of magnesium reacting with hydrochloric acid, we have a highly electropositive metal reacting with a very strong acid.
Is magnesium metal non-metal or metalloid?
Magnesium is a metal
Why limescale remover contains a weak acids and not a strong acid?
because strong acids would also dissolve/damage metal parts of the thing you're cleaning so "weaker" acids are used instead.
Is magnesium acids and weak acids?
Magnesium is NOT an acid, it is a metal element.

Are alkali metal and alkaline earth metal strong acids?
Yes they are.

How does magnesium react in acid?
The metal "dissolves" vigorously, producing Hydrogen gas which is seen as a fizzing and a magnesium salt is formed also.
