No. Tornado activity fluctuates from one year to the next. Looking at the number of recorded tornadoes, there appears to have be an increase though the 20th century, but this is entirely due to our increased ability to detect F0 and F1 tornadoes. The number of significant (F2 and stronger) tornadoes in recent years is actually somewhat lower than it was in the 1950s and 1960s.
While 2011 was the most violent year for tornadoes in decades, 2012 and 2013 saw some of the lowest overall tornado activity since the late 1980s.
