No. However the body has nicotinic receptors in nerve cells- places where nicotine binds to cause it's psychoactive effects. These receptors are probably also activated by substances created by the body which have a structure very similar to nicotine- it's not as though we'd evolve to all have a very special receptor created for the sole purpose of responding to a drug!
