Not really, no. In Spanish, there are two 'modes': the indicative and the subjunctive. Tenses like the present and imperfect exist within those modes, to create the present indicative, imperfect indicative, the the present subjunctive, and the imperfect subjunctive.
I said "not really," though, not "unequivocally no" because you may notice that in the chart at the bottom of the dictionary entries of verbs in the SpanishDict dictionary that present subjunctive conjugations are listed under plain old 'subjunctive'. You may be interested in looking up a verb here and seeing how the various tenses are included in the indicative and subjunctive boxes.
