No. In fact you could distill such alcoholic beverage on your own backyard for that matter, but you cannot name it as "tequila": there is an international classification system known as Designation of Origin (DO) which states the quality and geographical origin of such beverages. This classification is made to differentiate the cheap, low-quality brands from premium brands made of the "right stuff".
For example, Herradura and Don Julio are two of the best brands of tequila; both are made exclusively in Jalisco, Mexico due to their DO. On the other hand, you have Sauzaand Hornitos Reposado, which no longer keep the "tequila" denomination as they don't have all the required "ingredients" and/or are made outside of the delimited DO area.

What is the difference between tequila and mezcal?
First off, all Tequilas are Mezcals, but not all Mezcals are Tequilas. Tequila must be made from at least 51% Blue Agave and must be made in the tequila region of Mexico. Anything less, or outside of the Tequila region is known as a Mezcal. Mezcals can be made anywhere in the world, and be made from either green or blue agave. The famous gusano worm is only found in some Mezcals - never tequila. The gusano worm does not eat the blue agave. They only eat green agaves.
