Hello, Nima.

In a word, yes.

I explain in this article on headaches: http://somatics.com/headaches.htm

For migraines to result from weight training, you would also have had to have a previous neck injury, such as a whiplash injury or hard fall, or have become musclebound in your neck from long periods of improper movement during training.  Then, the additional muscular contraction of your neck during a training session can send you over the edge.

You'd be best off doing a somatic exercise program to free your neck.  Ask, and I can advise.
