No. Evolution is defined, in its simplest form, as descent with modification. So reproduction is an essential part of the definition of evolution.
The key component of evolution is reproduction of the species.
If you're referring to "sexual reproduction" and the theory of evolution, then yes. It plays a major part in the evolution of organisms which use it, as it offers major advantages.
Land plants no longer require water as a medium for reproduction with evolution because with the evolution of seeds and pollen it is no longer needed.
Evolution
sexual reproduction gives traits of both parents to the child where as asexual reproduction is just a copy of the original with no change at all
Sexual reproduction helps evolution because it allows for changes to take place over generations. Without any reproduction, no evolution would occur because the species only sees change over time and generations, it cannot be seen in one lifetime. Plus, without reproduction, the species will become extinct.

Evolution
sexual reproduction because asexual reproduction results in an organism that is identical to the parent cell which does not allow for diversity. diversity allows for evolution. sexual reproduction results in offspring that are not identical and may contain traits that are better adapted to survive in their environment.
Evolution doesn't have a constant rate because it depends on environmental factors and reproduction frequency.

Without reproduction, evolution could not occur. Thus, organisms would be unable to adapt to the environment over evolutionary time. Moreover, without reproduction an organism would not be able to produce copies of itself. That means that when that organism dies, there would be no more of that organism. Life would quickly extinguish in this way.
