Life has to be able to metabolize, grow, and reproduce. Viruses need outside cells to reproduce (then can't reproduce on their own), and therefore are not alive. However, viruses are considered organisms. So, viruses are one example of a non-living organism, but there are likely more.

Bottom line: No, not all organisms are living things
