Yes. Homicide is the broad spectrum that includes all crimes that involve killing another person. Most states include: murder, voluntary manslaughter, involuntary manslaughter, and negligent homicide. There are normally also some other crimes included under the umbrella, such as vehicular homicide.
It would be very rare for a person to be convicted of any homicide crime and not be sentenced to any jail time.
