No. It is In-dee-yann . Some people mispronounce it as In-Jun, with the short u sound, but that is just lazy enunciation.

The dy- sound in English is often palatalized to dj- in informal and dialectical speech, for example didja and woodja for did you and would you. It is not lazy. That said, the uh vowel produced by palatalizing Indian to Injun is not a shot u sound ( as in book ) but a schwa.
