No.

The ratio (length : width) of the sides of a sheet of the A series of papers (of which A4 is one) is √2 : 1 ≈ 1.414 : 1

Alternatively, the ratio can be expressed as 1 : 1/√2 ≈ 1 : 0.707

A golden rectangle has sides in the ratio (length : width) of φ : 1 = (√5 + 1)/2 : 1 ≈ 1.618 : 1

Alternatively, the ratio can be expressed as 1 : 1/φ = 1 : 2/(√5 + 1) = 1 : (√5 - 1)/2 ≈ 1 : 0.618
