Not exactly. "Antagonistic" means hostile.
Antagonistic pair is a combination of agonist and antagonist muscles that only one contracts and the other one relaxes. The biceps in a human body are an example of it.
Perhaps you mean antagonist and agonist muscles often occur in pairs, called antagonistic pairs. As one muscle contracts, the other relaxes. An example of an antagonisic pair is the biceps and triceps; to contract - the triceps relaxes while the biceps contracts to lift the arm.
