No. The guitar was invented 100s of years earlier than the blues. And when the blues began out of rag the major instrument was the piano or the dobro or steel guitar for slide work. The guitar was really a poor mans instrument easy to play and build a decent one but not great or good one. Original Guitars were gut and nylon. Steel strings came much later.

Blues with guitar are common. Blues with guitar and steel guitar and harmonica are the best.
