No.

2D-Shooters are basically You = plane / ship / whatever and enemy = thousands of ships / planes / whatever.

The mission is to hold down the fire button and eradicate all of them. A true 2D shooter will have like 19283098324 bullets on the screen at all times with yours and enemy bullets flying every which way. Dodging and killing is something that a non-gamer would find impressive and "impossible".

Look up some of the games mentioned here by Moogy, Mal, and myself.
