Technically, yes. However by the time gold was discovered in California, Mexico had already lost any chances of getting California or its gold back from the United States: The Mexican-American War occurred between April 25, 1846 and February 2, 1848. Gold was discovered on January 24, 1848 in Coloma, California. By that time, California was already occupied by American troops.
It sort of ended when Mexico lost the war under their dictator Santa Anna a the hands of the US. The US the took California and the areas now known as Arizona and New Mexico and gave the rest back to Mexico so they could still be an independent nation.
After the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) Mexico lost several territories, including present-day California, Nevada, Utah and part of Colorado as well as most of northern New Mexico and Arizona. Also at the end of the war Mexico was forced to cease any attempt on reclaiming Texas. This is known as the Mexican Cession (1848).
