Is it a lie if you steal something?

No, it's theft, which is a far more serious crime (lying is not in and of itself a crime, but lying under certain circumstances can be; for example, the crime of perjury is lying to a court of law). Depending on the nature of the theft, it could fall into any of numerous technical categories, such as shoplifting, robbery, burglary, etc.
