No, erosion is when things degrade over time. Even though rain does erode things, it is not erosion.

How is rain considered erosion?

The water in rain is not pure, as it contains some of the pollution in the air, which leads to the creation of dilute sulphuric acid in rain, thus acid rain. When this comes into contact with some forms of rocks it reacts with it and removes some of the rock, causing erosion. Also normal rain causes erosion as over extremely long periods of time the rain acts as sandpaper on mountains or cliffs or rocks in general.
