No, the word 'these' is an adjective and a demonstrative pronoun,

The adjective 'these' is placed before a plural noun to describe that noun as the one that is present or near in place, time or previously mentioned.

example: Mom would love some of theseflowers.

The demonstrative pronoun 'these' is a word that takes the place of a plural noun, indicating near or far in place, time, or previously mentioned.

The demonstrative pronouns are: this, that, these, those.

example: These are mom's favorite flowers.
