No. By definition Beef Wellington is made with meat from the tenderloin. You can make a faux-wellington by wrapping any cut of meat in pastry & duxelles, but it won't be a true Beef Wellington.
I think it's named after the Duke of Wellington.

Beef Wellington.
Setting the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, it is ideal to cook the beef wellington for about 40 minutes.
This is a dish you eat made of beef.
The basic recipe is a fillet of beef, wrapped in puff pastry and then baked. Most versions of the dish coat the beef in a layer of finely chopped and sauted mushrooms or in some cases a layer of pate before wrapping in the pastry. Some say that it was Duke Wellington's favorite dish, and hence is called Beef Wellington. Others say it is of Irish decent, from a dish called steig Wellington of Ireland. The French even have a version somewhat similar called "fillet de boeuf en croute".
You can use beef chuck or brisket as a substitute for beef shank in this recipe.
