No, Christ is only whole and entire in the Holy Eucharist - down to the tiny particles of the Sacred Host and down to drops from the Sacred Blood.

This is why lay people are not allowed to keep the Holy Eucharist in their possession in a reliquary but one can keep a relic from the true Cross or crown of thorns in their possession.
