No. Japan attacked the US on December 7, 1941; Japan declared war that same day.

On December 8th, the US Congress declared war on Japan after FDR's memorable "Day of Infamy" speech.

On December 11th, Germany and Italy declared war on the US, since they were allies of Japan. Later that same day, the US Congress declared war back on Germany and Italy.
