A twin prime is a Prime number that differs from another prime number by two.
ex. (5, 7)

The numbers two away from 23 are 21 and 25 which are both composite numbers.
So in short, no 23 is not a twin prime.

No, 23 is not a twin prime. A twin prime is a prime number that has a prime number difference of 2 with the nearest prime number. In the case of 23, the nearest prime numbers are 19 and 29, which do not have a difference of 2.
