Strictly, no.
Lincoln allowed slavery to continue in the four 'buffer states' that had stayed loyal to the Union.
As for the Confederate states, Lincoln had no authority over these. So his Emancipation Proclamation (effective Jan. 1863) could not be enforced. However, it allowed Union troops to liberate slaves wherever they found them in the south.
By the end of the war, hundreds of thousands of slaves had been freed and many became Union soldiers.
