No. The Nazis exterminated people against their will. The Nazis did the choosing and chose who they thought shouldn't be allowed to live. Euthanasia as discussed today is the termination life as a humane act. The Nazis did not exterminate people for humane reasons.The word euthanasia in your question should be highlighted in quotation marks since Nazi killing was anything but humane.

There are many different ideas on who invented euthanasia, but the most often agreed with is the Nazi physicians came up with it to give the "good death" to the handicapped kids.
Euthanasia is the name given to assisting someone to die to relieve suffering. In most countries it would be illegal and regarded as murder.
It was denounced in sermons by the Roman Catholic Bishop of Muenster in August 1941 and the Bishop of Limburg wrote protesting ... The euthanasia program was halted for several months and some of the 'experts' in killing were transferred to the Final Solution, but the euthanasia program restarted later on a much smaller scale.
We cannot know for sure when euthanasia started for sure, but if you look at the earliest known form, in Nazi Germany, it was to purify the "Aryan race". Aka, kill those who weren't good enough.

The euthanasia programme of Nazi Germany (called T-4) was the start of the executions. The T-4 programme would use lethal injection and gas vans that would later be use in the Holocaust.
