Well, no, for several reasons:
1) There is no Roman Catholic Church: It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.
.
2) The Catholic Church cannot have "branches", it is the one and only, single Body of Christ, and His Bride. Our Blessed Savior only has ONE body and one Bride. He is not schizophrenic, and He is not psychotic. He formed ONE Church, guaranteed it, and send the Holy Spirit to guide it until the end of the world.
3) There are only a handful of protestant "churches" that LEFT the Catholic Church, like the Lutherans, the Methodists, Anglicans, etc. Most of the other 33,000 + (as of 2013) are brand new churches that either left the originals, or never left anyone, just started on their own out of nowhere.
