No. SONAR (SOund Navigation And Ranging) is an acronym for a human technology that used for underwater navigation. Bats have the ability that may be similar to SONAR, but they do not use a machine and do not use it under water. They use their ultra sensitive hearing and brain processing to "see" in the dark with sound waves, sort of like how we see with light waves.
