No. The king was the most important figure in the feudal system. He owned all the land in england and infeudated (rent in return for certain things such as military service) to his barons who infeudated it to knights and so on and so forth until the peasants. Therefore the priests and the church actually did not own any land at all making them less powerful if anything than prior to the Battle of Hastings. However King William had vowed to reform the church of England (hence gaining the papal banner to invade england with). Regardless of wether they gained or lost power, the church and priests were definitely not the most powerful people in the feudal system.
