Yes.
Answer from a New Testament perspective:No.Acts 2:46, 47 - So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved. [NKJV]

What does the Catholic Church say about the Church of Christ?
Not much specifically, the Catholic Church has always prayed that all protestants would return to the Church that Jesus Christ founded for their salvation.
Why do catholics believe that only individuals baptized and confirmed in the catholic church are saved and all others damned?
Because Jesus Christ established the Catholic Church as necessary for salvation. If someone rejects the Catholic Church, they are rejecting the salvation that comes from Jesus Christ. However, if someone is invincibly ignorant of Christ and His Church as necessary for salvation, then they are not really rejecting the Catholic Church. Therefore, they could be (in one sense) "in" the Catholic Church without even knowing it. If people in this situation cooperate with whatever grace they have, it is possible that they could go to heaven without being formally in the Catholic Church. However, those who are saved in this manner are still saved by Jesus Christ through His Catholic Church, because they are "in" the Catholic Church by desire, having never rejected it and having tried to follow God to the best of their ability.
