No, because if you use the formula to find an angle measure: 180(n-2)/n (this formula only works for regular shapes) where n is the number of sides, then the measure of one of the angles equals 135. Then in order to tessellate 135 must be a multiple of 360. But 135 x 2 = 270, and 135 x 3 = 405, so a regular octagon does not tessellate.
