No, EXCEPT for the element Radium, which gives of its own blue green glow. The radioactivity of most radioactive substances is not visible to the human eye and therefore abscess of fluorescence does not mean that the substance is not radioactive.

Fluorescence is normally caused when a substance absorbsthe energy form an invisible part of the light spectrum (eg UV light) and then re-emits it in the visible spectrum. The substance then seems to glow (fluoresce) with more light than is falling on it and thus stands out vividly.
