No.


With Family Sharing, there is a shared photo album.


You also have a shared calendar and with 200GB plans (or better) for iCloud storage, you can share storage, but not the data stored there. The music plan is not really shared, just the payment for it. You each get your own independent iCloud Music Library.


Messages and email are never shared unless you use the same credentials.
