No, Puerto Rico is in the Caribbean.

Puerto Rico is both physically and politically a part of North America. It is a Caribbean Island, however, these islands are grouped with North America. It is also a part of the US, so it is politically a part of North America.

Puerto Rico is a commonwealth in free association wiht the United states. It is not a State of the US, nor is it an independent nation (state).
