No. Never. Calling oneself a king in ancient Rome was a very risky business considering the feelings of the Roman people about kings. Augustus always referred to himself as the "first citizen" or in Latin, "princeps" from which we get the term for the rule of the emperors which is the principate.

How and why did Augustus make the people think Rome was still a republic?
Augustus made the people think Rome was still a republic by not publicly declaring himself emperor, keeping the Senate in the legal system (although tis power was only symbolic), and not giving himself a huge palace. He did all this because he knew the public would not be happy if he was the emperor. Long ago, the Romans had sworn that they would never have another king after the bad rule of Tarquin. The Romans would have probably rebelled if he had declared himself emperor, and he also didn't want to be murdered like his great uncle, Julius Caesar. By not declaring himself emperor, he could have all the power, and not be as afraid of revolt or assassination.
Why were the emperors in Rome first known as first citizens and later known as dominus?
They were not--exactly. The only emperor of Rome who gave himself the title of First Citizen was Augustus to give the impression that he was not a king. Other emperors could probably be called Dominus as a sign or respect. Although after the empire was divided, one of the minor Caesars could have been addressed in this way.
