Answer:
No, because acceleration due to gravity (g) does not depend on the body's mass. Thus, bodies of different mass accelerate towards the earth with same acceleration.

The value of g does not depend on the mass of the falling body.
The reason is the gravitational force on a body due to the earth is directly proportional to the mass of the body and for a given force, the acceleration of a body is inversely proportional to the mass of the body.
