Generally, no. Eminent domain is the taking of private property by the government for "public use,". The land owner can file suit and take their chances in court but those suits are most often filed over the amount of compensation paid by the state and the land owner rarely wins.
It is called eminent domain when a city or government takes private property for public use. The idea is that it is for the "better good" of the community or state.
