No. Canonization is the church's formal process of declaring that an individual is a saint. This use of the Word saint (common in the Roman Catholic Church but not in every Christian church) means that it is certain that the individual is now in heaven. Feast day refers to the day chosen by the church for that individual to be honored in a special way by the faithful.
