In a word: "no." Several species of wasps are referred to as mud daubers. Most belong to the family Sphecidae. These wasps are solitary wasps that hunt Spiders and other insects as prey. Their venom has evolved to act as a paralyzing agent for their prey. This is unlike social wasps, that live in a colonial nest. These wasps have evolved a painful venom, usually high in histimines, to deter intruders from disrupting their nest.
Mud daubers live for a total of one year. Mud daubers are slender wasps that are known for eating black widow spiders.

Mud daubers are solitary wasps, so it is very unlikely that they will sting you (unless you do something like trap one in your hand). Unlike hornets and yellow jackets, mud daubers do not defend their nests.
