No. PCI-E is typically a very light beige color and is for anything from video cards, to sound cards, NIC card, etc.
An AGP slot ( Advanced Graphics Processor ) slot is no doubt specifically designed for Video cards. There are many different types of AGP ( 4x, 8x, etc ) and all were designed before the PCI-E had come out, to give the video card better speed than the standard PCI could handle.
