No. The "Prime Meridian" (Greenwich Meridian) is 0° longitude and runs through Greenwich, England, Western Europe, and Africa.

The International Date Line is on the other side of the world, at 180° longitude (east or west is the same line), and marks the start of each new calendar day. It is midnight at the Date line when it is noon at the prime Meridian. The actual line has detours to accommodate Russia, the Aleutians, and New Zealand.
