The terminology in this is muddled, but, no, hybrids are not GMOs. Hybrids do not use technology that manually removes a gene from one species (bacteria, virus, human, etc) and inserts it into another species (corn, soybeans, etc), which is horizontal breeding. Hybrids are developed through vertical breeding of the same species without the use of genetic engineering methods, though in rare cases cross-breeding of similar species has occurred.
