Some proteins act as enzymes, yes. Enzymes are just proteins that catalyze (speed up/slow down) reactions.
There are several types of non-protein catalysts, which are also called enzymes. The biggest group are RNA ribozymes, along with some lipid-modified proteins.
Some proteins do serve as enzymes, but certainly not all proteins.
When along with proteins some other non protein moiety is attached to enzymes, they are called conjugated enzymes
When along with proteins some other non protein moieties are momentarily attached to enzymes, these attachments are called conjugated enzymes.

some types of proteins are enzymes, hemoglobin, antibodies, and blood proteins. hope i helped :)

Most enzymes are proteins, yes. However, the statement (used some number of years ago) that all enzymes are proteins is false. There are a few (but important) exceptions to that generalization.

Enzymes are proteins which act as catalysts for various reactions that occur in cells. (A catalyst speeds up a reaction without being permanently altered itself). Some proteins function in other ways like transporting substances across the cell membrane or providing structure. Therefore, all enzymes are proteins but not all proteins are enzymes. Uhm Ribozymes are enzymes that are not protein
No, most enzymes are proteins, some of which are "decorated" with sugars. A few enzymes are composed of RNA.

Most enzymes are classified as proteins. However, there are some enzymes that are not classified as proteins such as ribozymes (nucleic acids) and vitamins (coenzymes).
Enzymes are Protein in Nature. Proteins are more precisely described as biochemical compounds. Some enzymes are combined with Rna's to form for example - Ribozymes. Enzymes, while completely composed from Organic Protein, are 'merely' one Form of Protein.
