No because a pentagonal prism has a unified cross-section
Each and every prism has two parallel congruent bases. It is the shape of these bases that give the name to the prism: a pentagonal prism has pentagons (not necessarily regular) for its bases.
Penta means 5. In other words none if it is a regular prism.
It can have one, two or three pairs of parallel faces.
