No. A cathode ray tube uses cathode rays to (among other things) scan a phospher and generate an image. An iconoscope is similar, in that its uses cathode rays to scan, but it scans a light sensitive area so, instead of generating an image, the iconoscope scans an image. It is a television camera, instead of a television set, so to speak.
