No.

The first lighthouse ever built was believed to have been in Alexandria, Egypt, on Pharos Island, during the rulership of Ptolemy ll around 300 BCE. It was considered one of the 'Wonders of the World', it's warning fires burning for 1600 years before it was destroyed (most likely by earthquake). Historical works describe it as 300 feet tall, and Jewish historian, Josephus, says it's flames were visible from 30 miles away, but it was never mentioned in the Bible, nor was any other lighthouse.
