No, not in my experience altho it can depend on the wording of the statute in various jurisdictions.

Is possession of a controlled substance a crime of moral turptitude?
: What is a crime of moral turpitude?: A crime of moral turpitude would include such crimes as fraud, theft, housebreaking, kidnapping, robbery, murder, arson, forgery, rape or sexual assault. Certain other crimes are not crimes of moral turpitude, for instance, impaired driving. Crimes such as simple assault, causing a disturbance or joyriding are not crimes of moral turpitude. Even manslaughter, in most instances, is not a crime of moral turpitude. An individual convicted of such a crime is not excludable as long as he or she has no other convictions or his or her total sentences do not exceed five years. However, where an offence involves some element of reckless conduct, such conduct may constitute a crime of moral turpitude. Close examination of the statutory provision is necessary, but in Canada these may include dangerous driving and criminal negligence causing death. : Single crime exception-crimes of moral turpitude: See s. 212(a)(2)(A)(ii) The single crime of moral turpitude exception applies when the offence is punishable by a year or less and the sentence imposed does not exceed six months. Another single crime exception applies to offences committed when a person is under the age of 18 as long as five years has elapsed from the date the sentence was completed. The single offence exception does not appear to apply to convictions for two or more offences, even when they arise out of the same incident. The single crime exception does not apply to drug convictions at all. However, it is not clear whether an individual may be entitled to both exceptions, that is, one minor crime and one crime committed under the age of 18 years. source: http://www.golishlaw.com/crimlawt/usinaddm.htm If you had less than one ounce in your possession than it is NOT a crime of moral turpitude (thank goodness) as of 2000.
