No, the word 'they' is not a noun at all.

The word 'they' is a personal pronoun, a word that takes the place of a plural noun or nouns for two or more people or things as the subject of a sentence or a clause.

Examples:

The Browns came to visit and they brought the baby with them.

Jack and Jill went up the hill. They were fetching some water.

Note: The corresponding pronoun that takes the place of a plural noun or nouns for two or more people or things as the object of a verb or a preposition is 'them'.
