no. a conifer refers to a plant that produces cones. oaks do not produce cones.

An oak is a deciduous tree that looses it's leaves in the fall. Most conifer (coniferous) trees do not loose their leaves (needles or scale like leaves) in the fall and are 'evergreen'.

Quercus ilex the Holm oak is evergreen.

No. A conifer has cones with many seeds while an oak tree has nuts that are single seeds.
