No. As of writing, the block chain is at block 160220. Source: https://blockexplorer.com/q/getblockcount

According to the wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Controlled_Currency_Supply), the change to 25 BTC per block happens on block 210000. If you don't believe the wiki article, this can be verified by looking at the bitcoin source code.
