No, it is not. Racoons are of the order Carnivora, where rodents are of the order Rodentia. Rodents have two incisor teeth in their upper jaw as well as in the lower. The incisor teeth of a rodent grow continuously and must be kept worn down by gnawing. Distinguishing charateristics of members of Carnivora is their skull shape, allowing for relatively large brains encased in a heavy skull.
