No. It's a feature implemented by window managers named "focus stealing 
prevention". They prevent a window to get the focus on its own, to not 
interrupt what the user does. In that case, the window button should be 
highlighted in the desktop panel (or somewhere similar).

I usually disable focus stealing prevention on KDE to allow the programs 
to be raised and have the focus on their own decision. Like the IDE in 
debugging mode.

In Wayland, it's just not allowed at all.
