No but an engine failure on a twin is certainly an emergency
I think there is a slight difference between an engine failure and a precautionary shutdown.

Also a slight difference between and an emergency and an abnormal.

Airbus list engine failures and shutdowns in their manuals as "abnormals" and not as an emergency !!
