No. A "junior college" is usually called a community college these days, and covers the first two years after high school. An undergraduate college is the first four years after high school. It could be a college that ONLY offers the bachelor's degree (4-year degree), or it could be a separate unit within a university which provides undergraduate education, although the university as a whole might offer masters and doctorate programs.

Junior colleges typically offer 2-year programs and grant Associate's degrees, Undergraduate colleges/universities offer 4-year programs and grant Bachelor's degrees.
Many people do 2 years at a junior college to get academic breadth requirements done for cheap before transferring to an undergraduate institution to finish up their bachelor's.

No. Any 4-year college or university granting bachelor's degrees is known as having an undergraduate program.
