No. It is technically an "organelle" within certain cells of a green plant, usually the leaf cells. The chloroplasts are called that because they contain the chlorophyll that the cells use in photosynthesis.

The chloroplasts contain stacks of green translucent disc-shaped structures called thylakoids that hold the chlorophyll.

Because they contain the chemical chlorophyll which has a green pigment (pigment = a substance which produces a characteristic color as a result of the colour (of light) being reflected because of its wavelength - see EM spectrum).

Chlorophyll is not an organelle, however the chloroplastis. Chlorophyll is a chemical existing in chloroplasts that help plant cells to convert light energy into chemical energy.

Chloroplasts, which are only found in plants, give plants the green color because chlorophyll, a green pigment that helps in photosynthesis, is located inside of them.
