Not technically. Bricks are really manmade rocks. Rocks are created by nature using heat, time and pressure. Man uses much lower pressures and lower heat levels and much shorter time frames to make a substitute that is uniform in size and easier to work with.

Why do bricks have pores?
Bricks have pores because they are made from concrete and concrete is a porous material. Bricks could be made of non porous materials but then they would require a different, and more expensive, medium to hold one to another, where concrete is now used in building to hold bricks together.
Are bricks made from rock?
No, bricks are made out of clay which is fired at high temperatures in an oven or kiln. Clay itself was formed when rocks were weathered, releasing fine particles of minerals, usually silica (sand is made of silica and so is glass). When clay is wet these particles are separate but when it dries the particles stick together. Very high temperatures cause a chemical change in the minerals which cause them to harden (the same happens to sand which becomes liquid glass when heated and then hardens)
