No. There are many ways to win a Chess game; checkmate, resignation, disqualification, and if the game is timed, you can win by your opponent's clock reaching zero.
When an opponent makes a move that leaves the other's king directly open to being taken on the opponent's next move, that is called 'check'.
Checkmate is a situation where the king can't escape check, ie, to have a checkmate, the king must be in check. In a mate such as Fool's Mate, the first and only check, is also checkmate.
