No, it was the other way around. Calvin Coolidge was Warren G. Harding's running mate in the 1920 U.S. presidential election, so when Harding died on August 2, 1923, Calvin Coolidge became President.

Yes, he had just completed the term of Warren G. Harding (who died in office in 1923), but in 1924, Coolidge won a full term as president. What was interesting about the 1924 campaign was it was the first to be partially conducted by radio, which was still a new and growing mass medium.
