No, he's a fictional character created by J.M. Barrie based on himself, and he named the character after a 6-year old boy he knew. Barrie claims Neverland is real but it is a metaphor for our inner child and how our loved ones live in our hearts forever, like a person would live forever in Neverland.

The movie Finding Neverland points it out well in it's final scene where Barrie tells Peter (the boy who gave his name for the character) that Peter can visit his recently passed away mother in Neverland, that the mother still exists in every page of the boy's imagination and he can visit her any time, by just believing. Neverland can be real in our heads and hearts, but not out there. It is a matepahor--best not lose the line between reality and make-believe. Peter Pan is not real, he's fictional character in a book.
