Nope.

spread-ea·gle

verb
stretch (someone) out with their arms and legs extended.

noun
an emblematic representation of an eagle with its legs and wings extended.

adjective
stretched out with one's arms and legs extended.

The spread eagle is the position in which a person has their arms outstretched and legs apart, figuratively resembling an eagle with wings spread. It is a style that appears commonly in nature and geometry. In human style it is represented by the letter "X".
