Yes and no. No in that the original alchemy, with its chemically impossible goal of turning lead into gold and such, is no longer in use; if it is then it's very underground. Yes in that the methods of alchemists eventually evolved into modern chemistry. In fact, alchemy is sometimes used as a tongue-in-cheek nickname for chemistry, but this is usually purely literary.
