No. It was annexed (ie taken) by the US in 1898 and granted statehood in 1959.

American businessmen stole it, created the Republic of Hawaii, and then offered it to the US as a Territory.

Hawaii was not purchased. In 1893, expatriates and the US Marines deposed Queen Liliuokalani, the last monarch of the islands. Hawaii became a territory in 1898, and a state in March 1959.
