No, "quantum teleportation" is a specific technical term for a type of communication that involves both entanglement and a classical communication channel to together create a secure communication channel.

The purpose of quantum teleportation is the teleportation of quantum information. Teleportation is not necessary to the creation of a secure communication channel.
