No. It would be A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G# and back to A again.
A# (A-sharp) is also Bb (B-flat). G# is also Ab. These are called enharmonic equivalents.
So, your scale could read as A, Bb, B, C, Db, D, E, Fb, F etc.
Now this is standard 12 TET (12-tone equal temperament). Other scales as quarter-tone have separate sharps and flats (i.e. A# is not the same note as Bb).
There is no sharp or flat note between B and C and also between E and F.
