No. Men who dedicate their lives to a Buddhist monastic way of life are Monks and women are Nuns. Any person with sufficient knowledge can lead a Buddhist ritual.
Monks or Nuns who have received and understood the Buddha's teachings sufficiently (called being given transmission) are allowed to teach others. These persons typically are then given honorific titles such as Lama (equivalent to Sanskrit term Guru), Geshe (virtuous friend), Bhante (venerable sir), and venerable, etc.
