No, We can't say Corals are rocks. Rocks are non-living components of the Biosphere whereas Corals are living.

They are some kinds of mounds which are formed by thousands of smaller or micro animals known as Polyps. They are invertebrates. When the outer skeleton of these animals hardens, it form coral reefs.
