No, geysers require the presence of large subterranean magma chambers to power them, they are NOT confined to continents.

For instance the islands of Iceland and Newzealand both have extensive geyser fields, similar to those found in North America (Yellowstone).

However this said all continents will have locations where there are hot springs or mud flows, but not necessarily geysers.
