Clearly people don't think so, as the vast majority do agree with private property exclusive ownership.

Ownership of land by individuals within any national border is always subject to local government power (taxation, eminent domain, police power, escheat). True exclusive land ownership is prohibitively expensive for individuals, since it would require military defense.
