No, the self-defense mechanisms aren't the same thing as "police", since the former is structured bottom-up and the other one is top-down.
An anarchist society would be organized democratically so that the people affected by policies have a say in these decitions proportional to howeit affects them.
So when you have 150 people in a society and 80 vote for people with red hair should be burned as witches what happens then?
