Roman Catholic AnswerOf course not. The worship of God is know in Catholic theology by the Latin term, latria:

That supreme homage and religious worship which is due to God alone in acknowledgement of his being our Creator, our first beginning and last end, of his sovereign dominion and infinite goodness.

The reverence and honor to Mary is know as hyperdulia, which is just elevated dulia, which a whole different creature than latria:

Dulia:

The reverence and homage paid to saints and angels on account of their supernatural excellence and union with God. To be distinguished from the adoration of God (latria) and the special honour paid to Mary (hyperdulia).
