Probably not. White smoke indicates engine coolant getting into the engine cylinders and burning off. This could be a from a leaking head gasket or a crack in the block.

White smoke is eaither a blown head gasket or you have water in the fuel system.

Do sealant works on cylinder head gasket?
Depending on what type of leak you are trying to fix sealants that get put in the radiator may work for a while. But my experience says not long. If you are installing a new one, do not use any sealant not recommended in the gasket kit. If you are blowing white smoke out the exhaust, there are a couple of different brands that have copper in them. One is in a bottle, mostly clear liquid with the copper settled to the bottom. If the coolant is only going out the exhaust, follow the instructions and I have never had this fail. If coolant is getting in the oil or exhaust is getting into the radiator it will not help.
