No, it is not. From answers.com: "Definition: laser - Any of several
devices that emit highly amplified and coherent radiation of one or
more discrete frequencies."

From Wikipedia: "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of
Radiation (LASER or laser) is a mechanism for emitting
electromagnetic radiation, typically light or visible light, via the
process of stimulated emission. The emitted laser light is (usually) a
spatially coherent, narrow low-divergence beam, that can be
manipulated with lenses. In laser technology, 'coherent light' denotes
a light source that produces (emits) light of in-step waves of
identical frequency, phase,[1] and polarization. The laser's beam of
coherent light differentiates it from light sources that emit
incoherent light beams, of random phase varying with time and
position."
