No.

To check for divisibility by 9 add the digits of the number and if the sum is divisible by 9 then the original number is also divisible by 9, otherwise it is not.

For 24815: 2 + 4 + 8 + 1 + 5 = 20 which is not divisible by 9, so 24815 is not divisible by 9.

Note that the test can be applied to the sum: repeatedly summing the digits of the sum of the digits until a single digit remains means the original number is divisible by 9 only if this single digit is 9, otherwise it is not (instead it gives you the remainder when the original number is divided by 9). This single digit is known as the digital root of the number.
