No. When John Wilkes Booth was murdering Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865, his accomplice Lewis Powell (alias Payne or Paine) was sent to murder Seward. Seward had been in a carriage accident a few weeks before broken his jaw, so he had a metal brace on it to heal. When Powell broke into Seward's home and went to kill the bed-ridden Seward, the brace prevented Powell from striking any major veins. So, even though Seward was stabbed, he wasn't killed. Seward died seven years later, on October 10, 1872.
