No, the term limit for a president is two terms.
A president can serve up to two consecutive terms totaling eight years.
John Adams
Either way is permissible, and both have happened. A President is limited to ten years in office. That means that a Vice President (or Speaker of the House, or whoever winds up taking office) can take over office if the President dies or resigns for two years of the original President's term and then be elected to two full terms of his or her own. The Constitution does not dictate that they be consecutive terms.
Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) - elected to four terms. After FDR, the 22nd Amendment ratified in 1951, limited the presidential office to two terms. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
Woodrow Wilson was the first Democrat to be elected President for two consecutive terms after Andrew Jackson. In between the two, Democrat Grover Cleveland was President twice, but he was not elected to two consecutive terms.

Grover Cleveland
Benjamin Harrison, who was "sandwiched" between the two non-consecutive terms of Grover Cleveland. Grover Cleveland was the only US President to be elected two times in non-consecutive terms.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
No. The Constitution of the United States only allows for two consecutive terms of any one administration. That does not mean that a President who has served two consecutive terms cannot nominate and run for Presidency in the future.
He was the ONLY US President to be elected to two non-consecutive terms
Any office that cannot become President, yes.
William Clinton, Barack Obama and Grover Cleveland
Two consecutive terms.
If elected, a president can serve for two consecutive terms of four years each. If the president resigns or dies, and the vice president becomes president, he can serve out the remaining term of the former president. If the remaining portion of the term is less than two years, the new president can then run for and be elected to two consecutive terms of four years each. Short version- not more than 10 years with two years as a replacement for the president and eight years as an elected official.
In the United States, the president's term of office is four years. For many years, presidents were expected to serve no more than two consecutive terms, but there was no law about it-- in fact, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected four times. But in 1951, the 22nd Amendment went into effect and now no president can serve more than two consecutive terms, or eight years.
