Unfortunately the second answer below is about the Earth's rotation.
The question is about orbits, but should really use the word "revolve".
All the planets revolve around the Sun in a counterclockwise (anticlockwise) direction, when viewed from above the Earth's North Pole.
Usually we just say "counterclockwise" (the viewpoint is understood to be from above the North Pole.)
So, the answer to the question is: "No, they revolve counterclockwise."
Second Answer:
A point on the Earth's surface always rotates towards the east.
Looked at from a very long distance above the South Pole the planets rotate clockwise.
But looked at from above the North Pole they all rotate anticlockwise.
Take your pick.
Technically there is a convention in mathematical axes that says a right-hand threaded screw lying along an axis moves in the direction of the positive axis when it is rotated anticlockwise. Using that idea, a positive rotation is anticlockwise seen from the far-off positive end of the axis. Using that convention the Earth rotates anticlockwise (a positive rotation) seen from along the northwards axis

Do tropical cyclones move clock-wise or anti clock-wise?
Tropical cyclones in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counterclockwise (anti-clockwise) due to the Coriolis effect. In the Southern Hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. This rotation is a result of the Earth's rotation and the way air flows around areas of low pressure.
Venus travels in a what direction?
Venus travels in a counterclockwise direction around the Sun, similar to most other planets in our solar system.
Does Wind circulates clock-wise around high pressure and counter clock-wise around low pressure?
depends on if the wind is in northern or southern hemisphere

A Chevy 409 distributor rotor rotates clockwise.
What planet rotates wrong way?
Venus is the only planet in our solar system that rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets, a phenomenon known as retrograde rotation. This means that the Sun rises in the west and sets in the east on Venus.
What deriction do the earth rotate?
Clock wise
Which planets rotate counter clock wise?
All the planets in our solar system do this, except Venus and Uranus."Counterclockwise", for a planet's rotation, means "as seen from a place above the Earth's Northpole".
Does the asteroid belt spin clock-wise or anti-clock-wise?
According to my G-slate live backgroung image, the planets rotate clockwise and the asteroid belt counter clockwise. But then I would guess it would depend on which side you were looking at the galaxy from, wouldn't it?
