No, a circle is not a regular polygon because it is not even a polygon.
A polygon must have at least 3 sides and 3 angles (a circle has 1 side and has 0 angles), it has to be a closed shape, and it cannot have curved lines (circles are curved). Therefore, a circle is not a polygon. You *might* think that a circle is just made up of a gazillion squares, but no. It's simply just a curved shape.

How do you inscribe a regular polygon in a circle?

To inscribe a regular polygon in a circle, first, determine the number of sides (n) for the polygon. Draw a circle with a compass to represent the circumcircle. Using a protractor or a compass, divide the circle’s 360 degrees by n to find the angle between each vertex. Mark these points on the circumference, and then connect them with straight lines to form the regular polygon.
