No. A Rhombus has equal length sides, but opposite angels are equal. Since not all the angles are equal they are not Regular Polygons. Details for the two are listed below.
Rhombus
A four-sided polygon having all four sides of equal length. The sum of the angles of a rhombus is 360 degrees.
Regular Polygon
A regular polygon is a polygon whose sides are all the same length, and whose angles are all the same. The sum of the angles of a polygon with n sides, where n is 3 or more, is 180° × (n - 2) degrees.
