No, for various reasons which I discuss below:
1) Even if there were one single atom at the very center of the disk that single atom would, at a minimum, be spinning in space.
2) Due to the motion of energy (thermal motion) there will not be any one single atom (or molecule) at the exact center of the disk. A large number of atoms will be vibrating in and out of the very center.
3) The thermal motion itself is motion!!
