No, dams do not generate nuclear power. Dams are typically used to create hydroelectric power by harnessing the energy of flowing water to turn turbines. Nuclear power, on the other hand, is produced through nuclear reactions, usually fission, in a reactor. While both methods generate electricity, they rely on different energy sources and technologies.

How feasible is nuclear power?
Nuclear power is in use. Feasibility is 100%. There are a lot of questions yet to be reasolved, but whether it can make power or not is proven.

What do dams provide?
Dams are put in place to hold back water. This is generally used to create a water reservoir, but can also sometimes be used as a form of flood control. Hydroelectric dams, like the Hoover Dam, hold back water to create water pressure, to push turbines that generate electricity. In the case of the Hoover Dam, which holds 9.2 trillion gallons of water, extremely massive amounts of water pressure are obtained, and the 17 turbines combined make 2.8GW of power, which is about as much as 3 nuclear power plants.
Why do you need to build dams?
Dams are built for a number of reasons, two being:To control the flow of water so as to eliminate floodingTo make electricity using hydroelectric power
What Does The Nuclear Power Plant In Japan Do?
Make electricity.
