No. Dialect is the form of speech used in a particular region.
A dialect has some words/vocabulary/expressions where are unique to that area, and the grammar may also be very slightly different to the standard grammar forms for that country.
Invariably the pronunciation of words in a dialect will be distinguishable as belonging specially to that region.
However, pronunciation differences alone would be an accent, not a dialect.
Of course, regional dialects may include slang words. However, even 'standard' language contains slang. So the use of slang words does not necessarily mean that the person is speaking in a particular dialect.
