Yes, but in the biblical text, Sumer is known as "the Chaldees" or Chaldea; its inhabitants, Chaldeans. The links below show Chaldea and Sumer on maps which demonstrate that the same geographical area is indicated by both names.

The most prominent Sumerian in The Bible is Abram (Abraham): he was from "Ur of the Chaldees" (Genesis 11:28 and 31).
