No. If that were possible, a President could abuse the power to remove his political opponents from office. Senators may censure (discipline) or remove members of the Senate, and the House of Representatives may censure or remove members of the House. This is a rare occurrence, however.

Censure is a verb. It describes an action of strongly disapproving of something. Censure is also a noun, a strong disapproval.

Only the men that were rich could vote, women could not vote.
