No,
Jesus expressly forbids the idea.
Matthew 23
8.But you, do not be called ‘Rabbi’; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren.
9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.
10 And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.
11 But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12 And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
Neither is the Roman Churches claim that Peter was the first Pope correct, it was James the Just, brother of Jesus, to whom both Peter and Paul yielded authority after the ascension of Jesus
all the best urban
