No. Ronald Reagan died of natural causes (advanced alzheimer's) long after his terms as president.

Reagan and Brady were both shot, as well as a secret service agent who tried to shield the President and a D.C. police officer. Brady was shot in the head, but survived and eventually was able to walk & recovered most of his cognitive functions. After the shooting, he and his wife, Sarah, became strong gun control advocates.
