No.

Browsers which support scripting, but have it turned off will
recognise that they need to parse the content of <noscript>.

Browsers which don't support scripting will either recognise the same,
or not understand the tag (and ignore it with the end result being the
same).

Browsers which support JavaScript and have it turned off will ignore
the content of the <noscript> block. 

Thus <noscript> only hides content from browsers with scripting
supported and enabled.
