No. Rusting is a term generally reserved for the oxidation of iron. Processes similar to rusting also involve the oxidation of metals.
Fluorine is a nonmetal and the most electronegative of all the elements. So fluorine can only be reduced, not oxidized.
However, it is an extremely reactive gas and will react vigorously if not violently with most other elements.
