No coefficient of discharge is not constant. It is a function of many parameters like :

The ratio of the length of the orifice to diameter of orifice
Reynolds number
flow condition-whether it is increasing or decreasing
Pressure at the exit of the orifice (back pressure)
Orifice entry condition- like smooth entry, sharp edged entry etc.
