Technically no. "Deceleration" is a term used by many people to describe an object slowing down. However, the physics definition of acceleration is the change of velocity or direction. This means that acceleration can mean either speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. While it is understood what "deceleration" means, it is a misused term.
