No. The Boston Tea Party was a political protest in 1773 and did not start the American Revolution. The Battle of Lexington and Concord started the war when the British tried to seize a supply of militia weapons in Concord and were opposed by militia companies from nearby, and later from far away as well.

Long answer: It happened after the French and Indian war. The British King taxed the colonies (on tea and other things) because he needed to pay off the debt from the French and Indian War. The Boston Tea Party was when the Sons of Liberty dressed up as Indians and dumped tea into the harbor as a way to protest the taxes.
