no, that is usually an engine oil problem.

White smoke is usually the result of burning engine coolant. Blue smoke is from burning engine oil and black smoke is excess fuel (flooding). So, burning engine coolant is usually the result of a blown head gasket and/or a cracked head. A blown head gasket and /or a cracked head can be the result of a severely over heated engine. An over heated engine could be the result of a faulty water pump. So, the answer to your question could be yes.
