No. The market is very slow right now.
Even in December/January I had been getting a couple calls and about 3 emails per day. Now I'm getting about 4 per week. If that.
It also depends on what you do - multi-discipline, web, print, whatever.
But don't take my work for it - call some recruitment agencies and talk to them about the markets for what you do.
If you are currently employed, I'd suggest keeping your head down, ride out the recession and start looking at freelance when things pick up.
