No, for any base, there is no digit that represents the base, you go to the next higher place.

For example, in base-10, there are ten unique digits (0-9)

Base 2, there are 2 unique digits: (0-1)

So for base five there would be 5 unique digits (0 through 4).

To represent a five, in base five would be 105
