No, TCP/IP is the not the only protocol used in the world, but it is certainly one of the most popular. Older networks may still use IPX/SPX (Novell) which is a competitor to TCP/IP. Mainframes use SNA or LU6.2 protocols which are very different from TCP/IP. Appletalk is also a competitor to TCP/IP.

Tcp ip should not be used when?

You wouldn't use TCP/IP in a network that doesn't support it for other devices, such as a mixed legacy mainframe environment with PC systems. In today's world, there is rarely a situation where TCP/IP should not be used because it is such a common protocol across the world.
