No. A coelenterate is an animal (such as a jellyfish), whose main body cavity is also its alimentary canal (gut). Most animals, on the other hand, have a body cavity (called a coelom) that is separate from the gut.
For instance, inside your own body, you have an alimentary canal (your esophagus, stomach and intestines) and a separate body cavity that contains your heart, lungs, liver, etc. In a coelenterate, there is only one cavity.

What is the significance of coelom in the classification of animals?
Body cavity or coelom is generally the third most important criteria, after levels of organisation and body symmetry, in the classification of animals. Animals can be classified into four types on the basis of the type of body cavity they possess:Acoelomate (coelom absent): includes animals like sponges, coelenterates and flatworms,Pseudocoelomate (false coelom present): includes roundworms, andEucoelomate (true coelom present): includes all chordates, besides rest of the invertibrates.
