No.

Hallucinations and delusions (I've only had the latter) are phenomenological objects--they're not physically perceptible.

Do thoughts appear on a screen when you record them? No. So, similarly, a hallucination would not, either. They are mental phenomena that certainly are real to those who experience them (I cannot comment on specifics because I've never had what a psychiatrist has called a true hallucination).

I've certainly had disturbing mental experiences though.
