No. But, consider that the segment of your users who don't use password managers is also very likely 100% intersecting with the segment of your users who do not ever attempt to paste a password into a password field.
So by blocking paste you have zero effect on the users you wish would improve their password practices, and a 100% negative effect on the set of users who are creating and using secure passwords.

I guarantee you are wrong about this. For example, a lot of people receive passwords via email, and then paste them in.
