No, it is an ocean. A peninsula is a body of land that is connected to a larger body of land and otherwise surrounded by water. It is like an island except it is connected on one end to a larger body of land. However, the Pacific Ocean should contain a number of peninsulas such as the Baja California peninsula of Mexico and the US State of Florida.

The ocean itself can be said to be owned by no one or owned by everyone living on this Earth. Governments do "own" the three-mile buffer of any ocean that flows into it's land boundaries. Governments own land and the waters upon the land. Since the Pacific Ocean is not land, nor is it habitable by humans, it cannot be made into a state. The Pacific Ocean contains 20,000 to 30,000 islands, many of which are inhabited and have their own governments. So you can hear people refer to one or more "Pacific States" in referring to these governments.
