No. Sushi refers to the vinegared rice used to make a variety of dishes. The three main subset of sushi are:
Nigiri: a formed block of rice with a topping on it. The topping is often, but not always, raw fish.
Hand roll: A conical roll containing rice and a filling, wrapped in seaweed. It looks a bit like an ice cream cone
rolls: a long roll containing sushi rice and various ingredients, rolled up and then sliced into bite-size pieces. A california roll would be an example of that.

Raw fish on its own with no rice is called sashimi.

I was talking about nigiri, pic related, which seems to be the stereotypical thing people think of when they hear the word "sushi".
