No. It is already on their computers, in the browser cache. There is
nothing you can do to anyone except an absolute n00b to keep them from
saving them elsewhere. Your efforts (such as the infamous no-right-click
script) only serve to annoy, and make you look like an amateur.

You should not use HTML width and height to resize images. First, you
create long download times. Second, browsers do not gracefully resize
images.
Use two images, a thumbnail perhaps leading to a link to the full-sized
image. Consider putting a watermark on the full-size version.
