Yes and no. No in that the original alchemy, with its chemically impossible goal of turning lead into gold and such, is no longer in use; if it is then it's very underground. Yes in that the methods of alchemists eventually evolved into modern chemistry. In fact, alchemy is sometimes used as a tongue-in-cheek nickname for chemistry, but this is usually purely literary. So, technically, you could say that "alchemy" is still in use, in its modern form as chemistry.

Alchemy was a very genuine scientific inquiry in the middle ages, but it has since been made obsolete by the science of chemistry, which has a much better understanding of chemical phenomena than alchemy did. Anyone still practicing alchemy in the 21st century has failed to understand that science has advanced since the middle ages.
