That depends on which anole that you are talking about. There are about fifteen genera, with hundreds of species. To answer your question; no, anoles as a whole are not endangered, but there are some rare, beautiful (anolis gorgonae), possibly extinct (anolis roosevelti) species.

They are both small lizards..
The seven levels of classification for a lizard are Kingdom (Animalia), Phylum (Chordata), Class (Reptilia), Order (Squamata), Family (Varanidae, Agamidae, etc.), Genus (Anolis, Chamaeleo, etc.), and Species (e.g., Anolis carolinensis for the Carolina anole).
Florida is home to several invasive species of anole, primarily the Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei) and the Cuban Green Anole (Anolis porcatus). The Brown Anole, in particular, has established a significant presence and is often found in various habitats throughout the state. These invasive anoles compete with native species, such as the Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis), potentially impacting local ecosystems. Other species may also be present but are less common.
The scientific or taxonomic name would be Scripus acutus.
An American chameleon is an arboreal lizard native to the southeastern United States, Latin name Anolis carolinensis.
