The earth is positioned between the sun and moon in such a way that does not completely shadow one from the other; in other words, the sun and moon always 'see' at least a little of each other, except for during an eclipse. The light that we see on the moon is really the reflection of the light that's hitting it from the sun.

Short answer, no, the moon reflects the sun's light.
