No, a penguin is not a mammal, even though it can give milk to its young. Mammals also have many other distinct qualities, including skin with hair that penguins do not share. Classification of animals is based on their evolutionary relationship as well as such characteristics.
There are a few other birds (e.g. pigeons and flamingos) and even some fish who can provide milk for their young.
