No — banks are closed on Memorial Day.
Memorial Day (the last Monday in May) is a Federal Reserve holiday. Banks, the stock market, the bond market, and mail all take the day — it's one of the most completely observed holidays on the calendar.
Branches reopen Tuesday, and weekend deposits post with Tuesday's business day.
