no.
No. The square root of 5 is an irrational number. The two closest numbers with integer square roots are 4 (with a square root of 2) and 9 (with a square root of 3). Since there are no integers between 2 and 3 and 5 lies between 4 and 9, it's pretty evident that it can't have an integer square root.
