No. Mammals are divided into three infraclasses: monotremes, marsupials, and placental mammals. A giraffe is a placental mammal. This means that the baby is born live, and that it is born developed enough that it will not have to immediately crawl onto the mother's nipple and attach itself. In fact, baby giraffes can walk seconds after being born.
All extant marsupials are endemic to Australasia and the Americas. A distinctive characteristic common to these species is that most of the young are carried in a pouch. Well-known marsupials include kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, possums, opossums, wombats, Tasmanian devils, and the extinct thylacines.
