Absolutely not.
First of all, Copernicus died before the final draft of the book was published.
Secondly, the introduction to the book was circumspect in saying that these ideas were useful for computation, but not necessarily reflecting reality.
Thirdly, few people paid much attention to the book. Not until 70 years after its publication that any signficant objections to the book were published.
As long as the book was regarded as a useful computational tool, and not a reality, it was read and studied by almost all learned people; most definitely including Jesuit colleges.
