No. If you are mining for a pool, and I suspect there's a 99.999999% chance you are, then you found a block FOR THE POOL, not for yourself. So no, you will get nothing more than 1 tiny share's worth of reward from your pool for your block find. Additionally a lot of hardware (from bitmain) doesn't even report found block correctly, and you may have also been mining some altcoin for your pool and not even found a real bitcoin block but some other bullshit coin.
