No.

No.
Now I believe I know where you are coming from: The analogy of does a
compressed spring storing energy have more mass than an uncompressed
spring.
In theory it would, however, the mass equivalent of the energy that
went into compressing the spring is so minute that the concept would
be impossible to experimentally observe or verify. Whether of not the
situation is factual or not becomes a matter of your confidence in the
theory.
In generaly, no net mass change has ever been observed in any chemical
reaction.
