Nope!

Black Queen on d7 can capture the White Queen on g7.

Not only is it not mate it's also losing material (black queen for white queen and bishop) and likely the game as well.

A much better move would have been Bc4+ forcing black to lose their queen.

Nope. Your queen is stacked my your opponent’s queen.

No but you were winning with a check with the bishop as they would have had to sack their queen. If they take with the knight it’s mate in 3…. I think 😂

Bc4 isn’t a mate.

Bc4 is good move to win material, but doesn’t mate.
