Generally speaking no. The masters degree comes first. However, there are colleges and universities that offer a combined masters and doctorate program. There are also some fields where students take a doctorate after finishing their undergraduate work (Bachelors degree). For example, within the medical, and science related field - medical doctor, Biochemist, etc.

It is a curriculum layout or sometimes known as a track, that prepares students who intend to seek admission to medical schools. It includes activities such as prerequisite coursework, clinical experience, volunteer activities, and research.
