Yes, these are called micro-processors.
If you have a dual-core CPU, it means you have two micro-processors running in your CPU rather than just one.

What are three ways of accomplishing multiprocessing on a computer?
This is accomplished by several means, including two processing units installed on the same die (used by Pentium processors), a motherboard using two processor sockets (supported by Xeon processors), and two processors installed in the same processor housing (called dual-core processing).
Two processors contained in the same processor housing that share the interface with the chipset and memory?
Dual Core
What type of processor housing contains two processors that operate at the same frequency but independently of each other?
dual-core processing
If a Pentium 4 extreme edition uses two ALUs inside the processor housing how many ALUs does the Pentium family of processors?
It has two ALU units. As do all Pentium Family processors.
What are processor's housing?
Processors run so fast these days that they generate enough heat that they could actually destroy themselves. So modern CPUs are surrounded by a heat sink to dissipate heat away from the CPU and it also has a fan attached to it. The heat sink and the fan are the housing.
The processor's housing is called the?
Processor package
What is the name for the bus that connects L2 cache to the processor inside the Pentium II processor housing?
back-side bus
What is the name for the bus that connects L2 caches to the processor inside the Pentium II processor housing?
Back side bus or cache bus
A type of L2 cache contained within the Pentium processor housing that is embedded on the same core processor die as the CPU itself?
atc bus
What is used for a memory cache and is contained within the processor housing?
SRAM (Static RAM)
What is a type of L2 cache contained within the Pentium processor housing that is embedded on the same core processor die as the CPU itself?
Execution Trace Cache
