No. electrons are sub-atomic particles.
it is bonding that occurs between a metal and a nonmetal with a transfer of electrons
If the electrons are "stolen" from the metal by the nonmetal, an ionic bond is formed. If the electrons are shared between the metal and the nonmetal, a covalent bond is formed. If the electrons "resonate" between the metal and the nonmetal, a resonance bond is formed.

nonmetal with nonmetal pair of electrons is shared between 2 atoms
Xenon has 54 electrons.
15
Valence electrons
Fifty four.
The outer electrons of a metal atom that bonds with a nonmetal atom are either transferred to the nonmetal to form an ionic bond or shared with the nonmetal to form one or more covalent bonds.
The element Neon

When nonmetals bond with metals the nonmetals will take electrons from the metal to fill their electron shell and empty the shell of the metal. The electrical attraction of the (+) charged metal and the (-) charged nonmetal form an ionic bond between the two.Nonmetals share electrons in a covalent bond.
