No. Penumbral eclipses, in which the Moon passes through the lighter partial shadow of the Earth, are not generally noticeable without the use of specialized equipment. We human beings are remarkable at being able to see in light from bright full sunlight to very dim cloudy days, in which the level of light is a tiny fraction of full sunlight. So when the Moon is only illuminated by PART of the Sun's light rather than by all of it, we generally can't see any difference!
