No. Organelles, such as peroxisomes, are encased in a bi-lipid membrane layer.

The ribosome is a complex biochemical machine that while associated with bi-lipid layers, that is the endoplasmic reticulum, it is not encased in it.

Yes, but it's important to know that it's not membrane-bound. Some distinguish ribosome from organelle for this reason.
