No, Mt. Everest is not a volcanic mountain and therefore it does not erupt.

Mt. Everest is part of the Himalayas and this mountain range was formed by the squashing of an ancient sea floor between the Continent of Asia and the Indian subcontinent as this was carried north by continental drift. Thus the Himalayas are a fold belt mountain range rather than a volcanic mountain range.
