No, the solar system is receiving matter and energy from other solar systems (light exemplifies energy, interstellar asteroids exemplify matter), the entirety of which are exchanging with other galaxies. The Universe is a closed system, meaning no new matter comes into it but (dark)energy does, ruling out the possibility of an isolated system(in which no matter or energy enter).
