No. Cold War meant No War. The term was used to tell the difference between a war and a military stand-off. EXAMPLE: During the cold war era, when on duty somewhere, if a servicemen heard, during conversations, "...things might get hot pretty soon..." he might be asked to clarify himself. To servicemen during those times, "Hot" meant war/ shooting (killing and dying, etc.).
