No. The phenomena is also called bilocation or in this case multi-location. He was alive & functioning at place X, yet at the same time his body appeared to witnesses at places Y & Z. After his Y & Z appearances disappeared, he continued to live at place X.
May all seek, find & follow the Path of Buddhas.
