No, by no means. Lear dies of old age, his end brought on by his distracted grief at the death of his dearest daughter Cordelia and his exertions in attempting to defend her. Cordelia is indeed hanged, but she did not hang herself.

What is king Lear character?

One of the wonderful things about the play King Lear is that Lear's voyage through madness actually changes his character. The man who describes himself as a wrathful dragon in Act 1 is very different from the "foolish, fond old man" of Act 5.
