No.

A few people mistakenly refer to extractors as ejectors. Ejectors pop the spent shell clear of the breach while extractors lift the shells (live or spent) about a quarter inch or so to enable the shooter to grasp them and remove them from the chambers.

As an aside, if you watch the hunting scene in Mclintock, the hammer gun that John Wayne shoots those birds with was clearly an ejector gun.
Not a Parker though.

We have investigated the John Wayne ejector hammer gun before. As I recall, it was a modern ejector gun that he was holding when the shells were ejected.
