Yes, that is the definition of a guyot.
Or perhaps limited to a 'mountain' until you know for certain that it was a volcano.

Guyot
A submerged flat-topped peak is called a "seamount." Seamounts are underwater mountains that rise from the ocean floor but do not reach the water's surface. They typically have a steep slope and a flat summit, and they are often formed by volcanic activity. Seamounts can host diverse marine ecosystems and are important for ocean biodiversity.
A mesa is a flat topped hill.
A high flat-topped land form with cliff-like sides that is larger than a butte is a "MESA."

it means either a flat topped submarine mountain or a flat topped seamount.
An underwater mountain is known as a "guyot" or a flat topped underwater sea mount. They often do not show up on naval charts and submarines have accidentally run into them. The USS RAY (SSN-653) ran into a coral guyot in the Mediterranean Sea on 20 September 1977 and was severly damaged.
A guyot is a flat topped underwater volcano or seamount. These represent ancient volcanoes that were probably surface features when young. Perhaps even coral atoll's. With sea-floor spreading, these are moved into progressively deeper water.
Unusual flat-topped seamounts in the ocean are called Guyots. Guyots are submerged volcanic mountains with a flat top that has been eroded by waves and currents over time.
Guyot
A guyot, also known as a tablemount, is a flat-topped seamount. It was named after the Swiss-American geographer and geologist Arnold Henry Guyot. The term was coined around 1946 by Harry Hammond Hess. Guyots are most commonly found in the Pacific Ocean.
We'd call the underwater geographic feature thus described a tablemount or guyot. It's a seamount, which is an underwater mountain, with a flat or platform top.

No, Table Mountain in South Africa is not a volcano. It is a flat-topped mountain formed through erosion and has no volcanic activity associated with it.
