No, Jesus was considered a teacher, a rabbi, and to Christians, the messiah and the son of God. He did have devoted followers, however, and the first twelve of them were called the apostles. The word comes from Latin and Greek sources, and means "a person who is sent out." The apostles were sent out to spread the message about Jesus.

HERE IS the reference to Matthias:

(Acts 1:23-26) "23 So they proposed two, Joseph called Bar′sab·bas, who was also called Justus, and Mat·thi′as. 24 Then they prayed and said: "You, O Jehovah, who know the hearts of all, designate which one of these two men you have chosen 25 to take the place of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas deviated to go to his own place." 26 So they cast lots over them, and the lot fell to Mat·thi′as, and he was counted along with the apostles . ."

Yes; Judas Iscariot was an apostle or disciple chosen by Jesus, as he said:

Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? (John 6.70)
