No. Before there was a country named Scotland most of the area was Pictland. The Scots lived in the west of the country and also across the narrow waters in the north of Ireland. The Picts did not use the usual way of passing on the leadership from father to son but through the female line, (usually the son of the kings' sister). After many years a man from the Scots was made King over the Picts, (though not the far north), and after a while everyone took to speaking Scots Gaelic, (pronounced Gallic). The people were still Picts but they gradually became Scots by the use of the new language. The Gaelic Scots who conquered the Picts certainly did come from Ireland. But thousands of years before that, every single Celt who lived in Ireland came from Scotland, and before that, Britain and the continent.
