No, because they weren't Christian. Jesus wasn't even around yet, let alone the holiday of Christmas.

Do christmas trees date back to the Egyptians Romans and Druids?

* Originally the ubiquitous True-False question: "The tradition of the Christmas tree dates back to the days of the Egyptians Romans and Druids." In Egypt and other ancient societies, there were Winter Solstice celebrations, and some associated the display of greenery with the return of Spring. The Romans had a feast of Saturnalia, which featured yule logs and holly. The Druids famously used holly and mistletoe as symbols of eternal life, and placed evergreen branches over doors to keep away evil spirits. The association of fir trees with Christmas may have begun with St. Boniface around 1000 AD, who was said to have discovered a young fir in the roots of an oak tree. Martin Luther is said to have begun the tradition of indoor trees in Germany around 1500, and Christmas trees were introduced to the US by German immigrants. They became an English tradition during the reign of Queen Victoria, who had Christmas trees set up in her room each year and whose husband, Prince Albert, was German.

Why did Obama change the name to holiday tree?

President Obama never changed the name of anything. Sounds like you overheard a rumor. That being said, "Christmas" or Holiday trees have nothing to do with Christmas. The tradition of decorating a tree has nothing to do with the birth of the Christ. People have been decorating and worshiping trees ("O Christmas Tree") for centuries, dating back to the Egyptians and Romans. They adorned the trees as a form of worship. ;)
