No, it's not :) Reed instuments are instruments that you use a piece of wood (a 'reed') on the mouthpiece. You don't put an organ on your mouth, so therfore it isn't a reed instrument. Examples of a reed instrument are; saxophones, clarinet and bass clarinet.
A single reed instruments makes noise by vibrating the reed against the mouthpiece, a double reed instruments makes its noice by 2 reeds vibrating together. Happy Playing! musictheory1@hotmail.com

A single reed is one piece of wood (normally bamboo) that needs something to vibrate against to create sound. A clarinet or saxophone are single reed instruments, and they both have a mouthpiece, single reed, and ligature to hold the reed against the mouthpiece so it can vibrate. A double reed is two reeds that are like a sandwich and they vibrate against each other, so they don't need a mouthpiece or ligature. An oboe or bassoon use double reeds, and double reeds are harder to blow on than single reeds.
