Ehhhh, sort of. It's a popular opinion among Buddhists that Jesus was enlightened. In fact, that's what was probably meant when you read/heard about him being an "incarnation of Buddha". Using such words is generally a way of meaning that someone has become enlightened, not that they are an actual incarnation in the literal sense. That's something that confuses a lot of people who aren't Buddhists.
