No. The US Court of Federal Claims is an Article I court, which makes it part of the Legislative Branch of government rather than the Judicial Branch.
Congress established the US Court of Federal Claims in 1855 to hear many types of cases involving monetary claims against the United States.
According to US Code (28 USC § 1491), the jurisdiction of the Court "is over claims for just compensation for the taking of private property, refund of federal taxes, military and civilian pay and allowances, and damages for breaches of contracts with the government."
The Court is also authorized to consider cases against the US involving copyright and patent infringement, bid protests for government contracts, disputes from Native American Nations, and cases involving Vaccine Injury.
The US Court of Federal Claims also serves the unique function of issuing advisory opinions to Congress, on request, regarding questions involving bills and resolutions.
