Its a different series, in the Star Trek universe... so it is the 26th season of Star Trek. And yes, Voyager and DS9 were on at the same time for serveral years... the last year or two of TNG also overlapped the first season or two of DS9. But each series was quite different and unique... but still Star Trek. Just like how any spinoff or successor series with different characters is, nonetheless, effectively in that series...
