No; although each individual disc (jangly-thing? I don't remember what they're actually called. Let's call them jangly-things) is tuned to generally be a pitch, they're all tuned to roughly the same pitch. And since all the jangly-things are a thin metal and sound at the same time, all we hear is one jingly noise and not notes (or chords) which are characteristic of pitched instruments.
Pitched percussion instruments are the keyboards--marimba, vibraphone, xylophone, bells, piano, harpsichord, etc.--and pitched drums such as timpani and the ever-popular steel drum. I'm not sure if tom-toms count as tuned drums, except maybe if you have a set of four.
