No — "opaque" means not transparent. An opaque material does not let light pass through it, so you cannot see through it.

Quick definitions:
- Transparent: light passes through clearly (e.g., clear glass, clean water).
- Translucent: some light passes but you can't see clear shapes (e.g., frosted glass, wax paper).
- Opaque: little or no light passes; you cannot see through it (e.g., metal, wood, cardboard).

Note: a material can be opaque in visible light but transparent at other wavelengths (e.g., some plastics or silicon are transparent to infrared). Do you mean a particular object or product?
