No. A circle is a 2-dimensional shape, while a galaxy is a 3-dimensional object. The 3D analogue of a circle would be a sphere, and "irregular" galaxies and globular clusters are sort-of spherical, but only if you look at them through fuzzy glasses.

Comment: A spiral galaxy like the Milky Way is a sort of disc and that's "circular" perhaps, in everyday language.
