In my case, no. I caught a cold from my little grandson a couple of days ago. Btw, the sore throat was fixed in about 5 minutes with a spoonful of 15X Manuka honey.

It would be nice but no. If that was the case then having a coronavirus based cold in the past would protect you from COVID which would be great!
There is some evidence of residual immunity in unexposed people suggesting previous unknown coronavirus infection raises a response but the levels seem to be low unfortunately.
Also, as Hugh says, rhinoviruses are a big cause (30-80% of infections)
