No. When one body is much more massive than the other, the lighter body (earth) orbits the heavier body (sun). Greater mass wins.
The sun's mass is about 2 x 1030 kg.
The earth's mass is about 6 x 1024 kg.
Therefore the sun is about 300,000 times as massive as earth.
Technically, it's most correct to say that both the Sun and the Earth orbit their common center of mass, but because the Sun is so much more massive than the Earth, the common center of mass is a point that's still within the Sun.

Earth moves in a elliptical orbit around the?
Sun. The elliptical shape of Earth's orbit is why it's sometimes closer and sometimes farther from the Sun, causing variations in seasons and temperatures. This motion is governed by gravity, keeping Earth in its orbit around the Sun.

What do you call the path on which the Earth moves around the sun?
The name of the path the earth takes around the sun is known as the orbit. The earth takes slightly over 365 to complete its revolution round the sun.
Can the moon orbit around the sun?
No, the moon orbits around the Earth, not the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit around the Earth is what causes its phases and affects tides on Earth.
