No. While the normal average core body temperature is 98.6, there is a wide variation in what is a normal body temperature. By definition, a fever is considered any temperature greater than 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius) in adults and children.

P.S. It's actually 37 degrees Celsius for a fever
