No, that is an intramuscular shot or they now have one for your nose. An example of a subcutaneous shot would be a TB test, where it forms the bubble under your skin.

Subcutaneously refers to giving an injection just under the fat layer or with a needle 5/8 in long. A flu shot is given into the muscle or with a needle 1 - 1 1/2 inches long (intramuscular). TB test is intradermal or just under the skin.
