No. During the times of the judges there were many cycles of backsliding, oppression, repentance and deliverance.

Not all the Judges were men because one was Deborah.

What was the cycle of apostasy during the period of the judges?
Cycle of apostasy is the cycle of abandoning one's religious faith. During the Judges stage, God's people (Israel) were to live in a way that would bless the entire world (some refer to this as "wow-weird", following the 10 commandments would draw other nations to them and eventually into their religion, which would bless the whole world). Israel forgot God during the Judges stage and failed to drive out all the Canaanites, which began the cycle of apostasy. Since they failed to do this, God let them experience covenant-curses, but when they cried out, he sent them deliverers (judges).
Judging Israel when the oppressor Sisera was killed by Jael?
Deborah was judging Israel during that time (Judges 4:4). According to the Bible, Sisera was killed by Jael, Heber's wife, after letting Him go to sleep deeply (Judges 4:21). After that, Jael met Barak and showed Sisera dead in her tent.
