No, DNA is not intelligent. There's no basis for it being intelligent. It's a complex molecule made up of four nucleotide bases that can be rearranged, so its structure is subject to modification by outside forces such as its chemical environment. It also has no traits that would cause it to be intelligent. It has no mechanism for inputting sensory data about its environment and does not exhibit any intention or volition. All it can do is make chemical bonds.
If DNA is intelligent, then any chemical can be intelligent. I keep a supply of ferric chloride on hand for etching metal and it has yet to solve even the simplest quadratic equation.
