No, not usually. Culturally, most Mormons reject traditional Christian symbols such as the cross and the fish. While individual Mormons may use them if they wish, most Mormons feel that it is inappropriate to use a tangible symbol to represent deity, fearing that people may begin to worship the symbol as an idol rather than the holy being the symbol represents. The Church itself does not use any symbols to represent deity and does not have any official symbols, although the shape of the Angel Moroni statue is often used when a symbol is needed.
