No. With low offset/high trail the bike wants to stay on course. Low trail bikes (forks with large offset or rake and/or steep head tube angles) can be steered into turns no-hands easily.
Caster is trail. (The definitions might be a little different, but if so they are closely related and follow the same trends.)
