No. The battery starts the car, not the alternator.

You have several things to check:
1. The most obvious is a faulty ignition switch, and/or power/ground problems to and from the switch;
2. A faulty fuel pump. No gas, no go.
3. Disconnected or damaged fuel injectors
Or a number of other things:
Eric The Car Guy has a video on just such a situation (no crank, no start). Perhaps it would stimulate how to diagnose the problem:
