According to the United States Supreme Court, no.

The original idea of Obamacare was to create a single-payer, mandatory health care system fed by public taxes.

The United States Supreme Court ruled that this idea was unconstitutional on the basis that healthcare is not constitutional right, and that the government may not force taxpayers to pay for a service they may not need.

After the Supreme Court shot the idea down, Obamacare, as we know it now, was formed.
