No, not THAT Nemesis.
The Nemesis was a legendary Decepticon warship, famous for being the ship that ambushed Ark. The Decepticon’s largest and most powerful battleship was a force to be reckoned with on its own, but filled with Decepticon soldiers, it was a dreadnaught of unstoppable power. The secrets of its creation remain mysterious, but one thing is known for sure. The Nemesis was the ship Megatron used to pursue Optimus Prime and the Autobots into space. The two armies clashed in a titanic battle in outer space before crashing to Earth.
The Nemesis possessed incredible speed and power tractor beams that could capture other starships and hold them for boarding.

History
Canon Cartoon continuity
The Nemesis was the ship used by the Decepticons to pursue the Autobots when they left Cybertron. A team of Decepticons left the ship to board the Ark, and both ships ended up crashing on prehistoric Earth.
Before the crash, however, several objects were ejected from the ship, including an escape pod containing the future Insecticons and what would become the Pearl of Bahoudin. Those that stayed behind to guard the ship were not recovered for almost a year after the Decepticons on board the Ark were revived, and some were not recovered until decades later.
In 1985, archaeologists eventually discovered the wreck of the Nemesis in South America. Once Soundwave relayed the news to Megatron, the Decepticons deployed immediately. Upon arriving, Megatron removed the power-source of the Nemesis, the Heart of Cybertron and had Hook then install it in him. Imbued with nearly limitless power, Megatron then attempted to destroy the Autobots, and almost succeeded, until the Heart of Cybertron was removed from his body and destroyed by Perceptor, Brawn and Bumblebee.

Upon arriving, Megatron removed the Nemesis's power-source, the Heart of Cybertron and had Hook then install it in him. Imbued with near-limitless power, Megatron then attempted to destroy the Autobots, and almost succeeded, until the Heart of Cybertron was removed from his body and destroyed by Perceptor, Brawn and Bumblebee.
