False.
Thermal energy is the internal energy of a substance due to the kinetic (and potential) energy of its particles. Heat is energy in transit between objects because of a temperature difference. Conduction is one mode (direct contact) of heat transfer, but thermal energy itself is not only heat transferred by conduction.
