No. Ariana was violently attacked by some muggle boys who had witnessed her practising magic and wanted to see it again. Ariana was only six and could not reproduce the magic thus the boys attacked leaving her emotionall scarred and unable to control her magic. The Dumbledore family then kept her hidden to protect both her and other people. Not many people knew that she existed and those who did believed she was a squib who was being hidden by a family who were ashamed of her.

Is Mr Filch from Harry Potter a muggle?
No. He's a squib. A squib is born from two magical parents, can see and access magical places and objects but can not perform spells as in can not do magic. A muggle would be completely and utterly non-magical person who has no magical blood relations nor magigal abilities whatsoever. So there's a fine line between a muggle and a squib, and Mr. Filch is a squib.

A Squib is a person who is born to at least one parent who possesses magical abilities but do not have magical abilities of their own.There are two mainly known examples of Squibs in the Harry Potter series, these are Argus Filch (the caretaker who works at Hogwarts) and Arabella Figg (a member of the Order of the Phoenix) who lives in Privet Drive near Harry and was asked by Dumbledore to keep an eye on Harry while he was young and was not at Hogwarts.It is said that although Squibs do not possess any magical abilities such as the ability to use a wand, they are accepted usually into the magical world. Squibs are unable to see Dementors. Mrs Figg, when asked about the presence of Dementors in Little Whinging, lied in order to get Harry off the charges.
