I guess you mean 'users'. No.
/usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.html in unstable says:
users
While Debian systems use the user-group system by default (each user has
their own group), some prefer to use a more traditional group system. In
that system, each user is a member of the 'users' group.
Just put a ! in place of their crypted password in /etc/shadow (assuming
you're using shadow passwords).
