No, not at all. For one thing, women who traveled alone were often considered immoral: a married woman was only supposed to travel with her husband or her family. Even single women were greatly restricted in where they could go and what occupations they were allowed to have. The idea of a woman going out to search for gold would have been considered inappropriate. Of course, there were some women who went against the norms of that era, but in a time when women had few rights, most just remained within the boundaries of what was considered "normal" in that time.
On the other hand, we do know of a few women who saw a business opportunity; they opened saloons or hotels in towns where the men came to stay during the Gold Rush. There were also some women who worked as entertainers, and there were women who worked as prostitutes. And as more new towns were being built, some of the miners brought their wives and kids to settle there. But for the most part, women of that era were excluded from searching for gold, and were expected to stay in the domestic sphere until their men came home.
