No, routine mass killings of Jews by the Nazis started in 1941. (On the other hand, harassment and persecution began in 1933).

In April 1933 the Nazi regime issued the first a series of anti-Jewish decrees. The first dismissed most Jews working in the public sector, including teachers. Later that month most Jewish students were expelled from German universities and colleges and Jews were banned from running theatres and acting. Already in March 1933 there had been some cases of Jews being beaten up in the street by stormtroopers. In other words, persecution and discrimination began very soon after the Nazis came to power. However, the word Holocaust is usually used for the systematic genocide that began in 1941.
