No. Andrew Jackson was never impeached; a later President, Andrew Johnson was.
Many people confuse impeachment with being removed from office. In reality, being impeached simply means the US House of Representatives voted to file charges, called Articles of Impeachment, against a government official.
After someone is impeached he (or she) has the right to a trial in the Senate to determine whether he is guilty of the charges and should be removed from office.
President Johnson was impeached by the House of Representatives, but the Senate voted to acquit him (found him not guilty), so he remained in office until the end of his term.
