No it does not tessellate you have to pentagons in order for it to tessellate.

It is not at all clear what "have to pentagons" has to do with this. No polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate. Octagons will tessellate if mixed with squares but that is not "proper" tessellation since it involved more than one shape.

A regular octagon will not tessellate but an irregular one can.
