No. Quite the reverse. In ancient times, the Celts who inhabited England almost certainly got there from France. And in 1066 it was the Normans - originally Vikings, but implanted in France for over a century - who invaded England and took the land away from the natives - which sounds like colonization to me.

The English only invaded France in the 1300s, leading to the Hundred Years War and the eventual ejection of English occupation of parts of France in the mid-1400s.
