No it is not. Cheerios contains wheat starch which is a gluten. Oats can be tolerated by some people with Celiacs disease but usually in the organic steel cut form.

Just to clarify: There is no form of wheat or wheat starch listed as an ingredient of Cheerios. Cheerios are made from whole-grain corn and oats. In theory, those grains do not contain either of the proteins that combine to form gluten in the presence of water (or milk). The label on the Cheerios box says, "May contain wheat ingredients", but that may just be a lawyer's way of saying that they may have been baked in the same facility that makes Wheaties or Chex.
