No. Mark's gospel gives a very specific time line regarding the crucifixion: Mark 15:25 - Now it was the third hour, and they crucified Him. [9AM] Mark 15:33-37 -Now when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is translated, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?" Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, "Look, He is calling for Elijah!" Then someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink, saying, "Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down." And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last. The sixth hour is noon, the ninth hour is 3PM; so Jesus was on the cross for just about six hours (9AM-3PM) before yielding up His spirit. His body was taken down and placed in the tomb before sundown that day, which marked the beginning of the Sabbath. Six hours was far less time than it usually took a victim of crucifixion to die, which is why, according to John's account, a soldier pierced his side with a spear to make sure He was dead (John 19:34).
