No, if you are interested in Android Development you should learn Java, and if you're interested in iOS development, Objective-C or Swift.

Check out Treehouse's Tracks page - it has iOS and Android tracks, so you should choose one of those rather than JavaScript if it's mobile development that interests you:

You can also learn Kotlin to develop Android apps. Google is now officially supporting it so I would expect to see some more content for Kotlin for Android in the not too distant future :)
