No the band gap is set by th estrucutre of the material and the atomic configuration of the elements in it. Doping silicon adds energy levels within the gap that are due to the dopant atoms. These levels can be occuppied even though they are in the silicon band gap but the band gap energy remains unchanged.

    The answer is no. The doping only increase the conductivity of the material.
