No. Igneous rock is volcanic rock, and there is no evidence of volcanoes in central Australia. Uluru is sedimentary. It is primarily sandstone, made up of around 50% feldspar, 25-35% quartz and up to 25% rock fragments.

Uluru, or Ayers Rock, is a completely natural monolith, formed over thousands of years by nature, not man. Incidentally, it is the world's second largest monolith, not the largest.
