No, Lady Jane Grey was a Protestant. The only reason she became queen was because Edward VI didn't want his Catholic sister, Mary to become queen. Edward was actually given medicine to stay alive just long enough for Edward to choose Lady Jane Grey as the next queen.
Lady Jane Grey was not the rightful heir to the throne. She was named as heir by Edward VI because his oldest sister, Mary Tudor, was a Catholic, and he was a protestant, as was Jane. Lady Jane was never crowned Queen because Mary was the rightful heir, and she was determined to be Queen, so stopped the plan.
