No, a fig is not a nut; it is a syconium, which is a type of multiple fruit that develops from a single flower's inverted structure. Figs contain many small seeds, which are technically the actual fruits of the fig tree. The fleshy part that we eat is the receptacle tissue surrounding these seeds. Thus, figs belong to the category of fruits, not nuts.
