No; the baselines are straight direct lines (the shortest distance between two points) between the bases. Two of the four coincide with the foul lines.

Runners do create their own base paths, however. Once a runner recognizes a defensive player with the ball is attempting to tag her, the base path is a direct line from that current spot to the base toward which the runner is headed; and the runner may not vary more than 3' from that (now) established base path.

These are both defined terms, and not interchangable.
