For the most part, no, in European Lore...well, depending on the Era and place Orcs were either:
1) equated to Goblins as malicious fae
2) large brutish creatures that are able to speak and live in dark woods
3) evil spirits
4) evil intelligent zombies
Most of the time in modern Japanese fiction (LNs, WNs, Manga, Anime) orcs are depicted as humanoid pig-like creatures, their level of sapience strictly depends on the setting of the particular story they are in. So you really shouldn't apply what you know from one setting to another.
