No. Uranus is a gas giant and doesn't have a solid surface like the rocky bodies of the solar system, such as Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and many moons. It is theorised to have a solid iron core, but this wouldn't allow for volcanic activity.

Uranus' moon Ariel has many features that are theorised to be caused by volcanic action. These actions are caused by the massive gravity of Uranus squeezing and squashing the moon.

When the earth and Pluto are as close together as they can ever be, Pluto appears

roughly the same size as a dime coin would look from about 41 miles away.

Since no space probes have delivered close-up photos of Pluto yet, we can't see

surface features there with existing technology well enough yet to decide anything

one way or the other about volcanos.
