No, it's not.

You're basically describing MJPEG, a movie format made up of a sequence of 
JPEG-compressed frames. That's older than and produces movies that are less 
well compressed than MPEG1, which in turn is older than MPEG 2 (used on DVDs 
and most of the world's digital TV broadcasts), which is older than MPEG 4, 
which in turn is not as efficient than MPEG 4 Advanced Video Codec a.k.a. H.264. 
You'll get none of the improvements made over the last 20 years of video 
coding.
