No, in fact leeches are annelida or segmented worms, like the earthworm. Sponges are something completely different, really just colonies of single cells that can also live apart. Leeches are full animals with organs and stuff.

No, a leech is not a sponge. Leeches are bloodsucking parasitic worms that belong to the phylum Annelida, while sponges are aquatic animals that belong to the phylum Porifera. Sponges are filter feeders that lack true tissues and organs, while leeches are segmented worms with a more complex body structure.
