Kinda, it actually stands for Armalite Rifle.

Well according to Armalite, AR does stand for " Armalite" not Armalite Rifle. From this PDF (page 2)

"Early Colt AR-15s, their magazines, and their operators manuals were marked with ArmaLite’s name. Colt’s
retained the AR-15 designation on commercial rifles. To this day Colt’s has a model designation with the letters
AR, which stands for “ArmaLite”.
