No, the word 'team' is not a pronoun.

The word 'team' is a noun, a word for a group of people or animals, a word for a thing.

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

A personal pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun for a specific person or thing.

The personal pronoun that takes the place of the noun 'team' is it.

Example:

The carriage was drawn by a team of horses. It was a team of two.

Although the noun 'team' is a singular noun, most people prefer to use the third person, plural personal pronouns (they, them), referring to the members of the team. It is grammatically incorrect, but most people prefer to use they and them.

Example:

We have a great team this year. They have won the first three games.
