No. Some meteors are tiny bits of dust, others are larger, but way to small for us to be able to see them reflecting sunlight. We only see meteors because when they enter the Earths atmosphere, they burn up which causes a very brief streak of light. It is only possible to see them at night. It is much to bright during the day to be able to see them.
