Not in itself. If your arm impedes the ballhandler, it may be holding. If you hit them with your arm, that is also a foul. But "reaching in" is not the name of a foul.

This is covered on a list of 7 Basketball rule myths on NBA.com. (http://www.nba.com/jrnba/officials/officials_guide_section15.html)
