No. Dots above letters (such as in Noël, maïs, aigüe) known as the "signe tréma" in French, indicate that the world is pronounced differently (like accents do). The tréma is rather rare in French and many French natives tend to forget it when writing.
The tréma in french is used to split a dipthong. A dipthong is when two vowels join together to create one sound. For example, a + i = the "i" sound in "like". But sometimes you may wish to not join the sounds. In the case of Maïs, it is pronounced "Ma-is" as opposed to the English word "Mice". It is important to note that this use of the tréma is a particularly french one. The German use, called the "umlaut" is used for rounding vowels and is the most common application of the two dots.
