The primary or 1st definition, as there are usually several, in most dictionaries defines inanimate as 'not moving, lifeless' or something similar. A tree is neither 'not moving' nor 'lifeless'. So by the primary definition NO a tree is not an inanimate object.

By almost all secondary definitions and beyond a tree IS inanimate when the wind is not acting upon it.

To conclude: The answer is circumstantial at best.
