As a general answer, no - but with some possibilities.

the Celts were skilled craftsmen in the production and creation of iron and steel, and are known to have produced maille (chainmail) for defence. They are likewise known to have produced helms which involved the creation of metal plates it is not impossible that the same skills were used for body defenses.

Tacitus makes reference to the German Celts wearing strong metal armour, but it is uncertain if this is solid plate, or maille.

Therefore, it should be concluded that it is certainly possible that a few rare peices of plate defence such as breastplates were made by the Celts, but there is insufficient evidence of its use to state so with absolute certainty. What is absolutely certain is their use of metal, non-plate armours.
