Definitely not. It is your solenoid that is causing the clicking noise

It is either:

1. a dead battery, due to:
a) a shorted cell
b) charging system fault

2. loose/corroded battery terminals, preventing sufficient amperage to
the starter.

Solutions:
1 a) Replace the battery
1 b) get the alternator/regulator checked out

2 Clean the terminals and apply anti-corrosive (available in auto
stores) and tighten the terminals.
