Probably not, for several reasons.

How is the guitar connected to the computer -- and what's the computer? Like: Win7 Dell Dimension Laptop.

If it's enabled, turn off "Software Playthrough". If you're using Audacity 1.2.x it's somewhere in "Edit menu > Preferemces", but I would recommend that you upgrade to Audacity 1.3.13 and then you'll find it near the bottom of the Transport menu.
